LITTLE PIECES OF HEAVEN

LITTLE PIECES OF HEAVEN

As I’ve grown older I have come to understand,

That there’s a little piece of Heaven in things touched by God’s hand,

I’m beginning to see it the more I look,

That little pieces of Heaven exist in what our Creator has took,

And molded into our everyday life,

All we have to do is look past worldly distractions and strife,

I see a little piece of Heaven in my love’s smile,

It lets me know living on the right path is worthwhile,

God placed in her a truth in which I believe,

And its given me the ability to promise never to leave,

How could I leave a love so true?

Our love was meant to happen at this time so due.

I hear a little piece of Heaven in a child’s laughter,

A joyous sound I now long after,

For it comes from within and is unadulterated pure,

It is without limitation and untarnished, for this I’m sure.

I feel a little piece of Heaven in my heart,

When I reminisce of loved ones who did part,

Their memories live forever within me I can confess,

I’m thankful that those precious moments with them I cannot repress,

I will never hold back the memories of their love,

As they now look upon me from above.

It’s the little pieces of Heaven I’ve finally come to appreciate and understand,

Thankful am I that God has touched them with the greatness of his hand.
