Heaven Is For Real

Sometimes I feel like
I am that innocent
little boy
upon the picture
in my hallway
that seems to be
just a little bit
out of place upon this earth
wanting someday
to live with angels
with smiling faces
in heavenly places,
for now I am
hoping there is room
in this great big world
for me and a Savior
named Jesus.

A short poem, but long enough to express a feeling of detachment and loneliness that is palpable.

Sometimes, it does seem that world is too ... for there to be room for anyone, to be important enough.  A thoughtful read. thanks!

Perhaps we create our own reality, James.

It tends, sadly, to be a great big world ever-increasingly filled with way too many very 'small' minds ...
