A Ticket To Heaven 
When you’ve past your best before date
And you know it’s time for you to go
Be sure you have your ticket to heaven
Or you’ll go to that place down below
If you were faithful to your religion
And lived a life that’s good and fair
You will be guaranteed your ticket
And your seat to heaven will be there
Only the good souls go to heaven
And all of the bad one’s go to hell
So just make sure yours is a good one
When you pack your bags and say farewell
Your ticket is a gateway into a second life
Heaven’s not for everyone, it’s just for the elite
And if you earned your ticket to heaven
Then it’s you that Saint Peter will come to meet


Author Notes
If heaven did exist would we need something like Brownie points to enter it

Made me smile
This is such a gentle kind write, which I so enjoyed. Even though I am a non believer jam this is such a comfortable write. Thank you for sharing, perhaps I can borrow some of your brownie points if need be, no only joking.
Thank you for sharing Woo

(Creator) 		Thanks Woo, I am an Atheist as well and always have been. Most of the wars in this world are caused by religion and religion is meant to be against such things. As Voltaire once said "If god didn't exist we would have to invent him"

Nicely done
Well, I like the simple and effective style and structure and this poem tells the read exactly what the author wishes to say. There's no hidden agenda, which is refreshing. I liked your footnote which exists as a kind of counterpoint to the poem. Nicely done.
