Two Tickets To Heaven

If I could give you two tickets to heaven, who would be the two people you would choose? Might it be your loving Mother or Father, or your adorable children if you only had two? Maybe your Grandma and Grandpa, who were watching over you, their whole lives through? Or possibly a couple of old friends, that you grew up with since the young age of two? How about your sister and brother, who were with you as you grew? A husband, wife or a loving aunt or uncle, with so many possibilities it's really difficult to choose. You see, to me it wouldn't really matter, because I'm already giving my two tickets to you.

It's a thought provoking poem where various alternatives are given. But you have already given two tickets means two children to your wife, I think. Your wife is a mother of your children,hence a heaven of your children. Lovely done, my lovely friend. Loved always,bl

Danny; This is a great poem with tough questions. First I want to say thank you for the tickets. After thinking a while I think I will pass them on to someone that really needs them... Have a great day... Lucilla
