Once on a yellow piece of paper with green lines, he wrote a poem.
He called it "Chops", because that was the name of his dog,
and thats what it was all about.
And his teacher gave him an A and a gold star,
and his mother hung it on the kitchen door and read it to his aunts.
That was the year Father Tracy took all the kids to the zoo and he let them sing on the bus,
And his little sister was born with tiny toenails and no hair.
And his mother and father kissed alot,
And the girl around the corner sent him a valentine with a row of x's,
and he had to ask his father what the x's meant.
and his father always tucked him in bed at night,
and was always there to do it
Once on a piece of white paper with blue lines, he wrote a poem.
And he called it "Autumn", because that was the name of the season,
And thats what it was all about.
And his teacher gave him an A, and asked him to write more clearly.
And his mother never hung it on the kitchen door,
because of the new paint.
And the kids told him that Father Tracy smoked cigars,
And left butts in the pews, and sometimes they would burn holes.
That was the year his sister got glasses, with the thick lenses and black frames.
And the kids told him why his mother and father kissed alot,
And his father never tucked him in bed at night,
And his father got mad, when he cried for him to do it.
Once on a paper torn from his notebook, he wrote a poem.
And he called it "Innocence: A Question", because that was the question about his girl,
And thats what it was all about.
And his professor gave him an A, and a strange steady look,
And his mother never hung it on the kitchen door,
because he never showed her.
That was the year that Father Tracy died,
And he forgot how the end of the Apostles Creed went.
And he caught his sister, making out on the back porch.
And his mother and father never kissed, or even talked.
And the girl around the corner, wore too much make-up,
That made him cough when he kissed her, but he kissed her anyway,
because that was the thing to do.
And at 3AM he tucked himself into bed, his father snoring soundly.
That's why on the back of a brown paper bag, he tried another poem.
And he called it "Absolutely Nothing", because thats what it was really all about.
And he gave himself an A, and a slash on each damned wrist.
And he hung it on the bathroom door, because this time he didn't think,
He could reach the kitchen. -

If roses grow in Heaven Lord
please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my mother's arms
and tell her they're from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for a while.
Because remembering her is easy
I do it every day,
but there is an ache within my heart
that will never go away. -

Does heaven have a phone number?
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
because 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. -
