Thanks for making it suitable for all.
Amjad.
I was shocked, confused, bewildered
As I entered Heaven's door,
Not by the beauty of it all,
Nor the lights or its decor.

But it was the folks in Heaven
Who made me sputter and gasp--
The thieves, the liars, the sinners,
The alcoholics, the drug users and the trash.

There stood the kid from seventh grade who swiped my lunch money twice.
Next to him was my old neighbour who never said anything nice.
Joe , who I always thought was rotting away in hell,
was sitting pretty on cloud nine, looking incredibly well.

I nudged the Angel of Death , 'What's the deal?
I would love to hear your take.
How'd all these sinners get up here?
Can it be a mistake?

'And why is everyone so quiet,
 So somber - give me a clue.'

'Hush, child,' he said, 'they're all in shock.

No one thought they'd be seeing you..'

JUDGE NOT!!

Remember...Just going to a place of worship doesn't make you more
pious any more than standing in your garage makes you a car.
