IS HEAVEN JUST A POINT OF VIEW?

A woman’s labor can be awfully painful
but, ah, the end brings so much joy
unless she dies… then naught is gainful
except her newborn girl or boy.

But wait!

I ‘bout forgot… There is that chance
her babe or babes could perish too.
Would God allow such happenstance
Is Heaven just a point of view?

What little faith we have sometimes,
to believe this life is all there is
that we’re the masters of the rhyme
penned by man… our will, not His.
