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,
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.
