Stairway to Heaven
All good souls go to heaven.
 But the question is how.
 How do souls get to those pearly white gates
 After they have stopped worldly life
 
 
 Is it a giant staircase?
 If there was room for it 
 If the dead had the energy 
 To trudge the trek upwards
 
 
 Is it an elevator?
 Well there'd be two buttons:
 heaven and earth
 But who'd press the down button 
 Once it gets to the top
 
 
 Is it a rope?
 What would happen if the soul let's go
 What rope could last for eternity?
 What would be strong enough to hold a
 possibly infinite length of rope
 
 
 Is there a plane?
 What would be the fuel.
 How could have souls
 Have gotten to heaven
 before they were invented.
 What if the soul didn't die 
 Near an airport for the dead
 
 
 Or do you just fall up?
 The law of physics can't be denied.
 What goes up must fall down.
 A soul should have matter
 Thus be also held down by gravity.
 
 
 Well it doesn't not really matter
 How one's soul would get to heaven
 As long as you have faith in God
 Anything is possible.
