Heaven

why do you search for a heaven without
searching solace in material toy
pure intent, honesty, loving, throughout
brings the heaven within us to enjoy
practice of letting go when we employ 

each of us has to carry one’s own cross 
with smile and goodness we learn to emboss 
demolish hell and many a demon 
we be grateful for gain and forget loss 
that is surely a ticket to heaven
