A Piece of Heaven

Someday soon

You’ll be able to

Put the past to rest

And get on with the rest of your life

Relinquish some of those old ghosts

That still haunts you in the night

You can pick up just where you left off

So many years ago

Tend your little garden well

So it has room to grow

Be sure to weed it every day

Choose well what you allow to stay

Fence your piece of heaven in

To keep it safe from harm and hungry eyes

Set traps for the rats

Who’ll try to steal your garden with their lies

Guard it well and keep it clean

Let the sunshine in

Always new and ever green

Don’t forget your friends
