Mommy

        Mommy went to Heaven, but I need her here today,
        My tummy hurts and I fell down, I need her right away,
        Operator can you tell me how to find her in this book?
        Is heaven in the yellow part, I don't know where to look.
        I think my daddy needs her too, at night I hear him cry.
        I hear him call her name sometimes, but I really don't know why.
        Maybe if I call her, she will hurry home to me.
        Is Heaven very far away, is it across the sea?
        She's been gone a long, long time she needs to come home now!
        I really need to reach her, but I simply don't know how.
        Help me find the number please, is it listed under "Heaven"?
        I can't read these big big words, I am only seven.
        I'm sorry operator, I didn't mean to make you cry,
        Is your tummy hurting too, or is there something in your eye?
        If I call my church maybe they will know.
        Mommy said when we need help that's where we should go.
        I found the number to my church tacked up on the wall.
        Thank you operator, I'll give them a call.
