Someone may ask, "In ALL you've done....
Through many battles...lost and won,
Did you feel POWER on your way
Or...amble on...from day to day?"
"Did you face life with...ATTITUDE....
Or as a passive...interlude....
Spectator to a mortal...fight,
Or...actively...involved in right?"
"When others hurt...were you 'right there'....
To show THEIR suff'ting world...you care,
Or turn your head....and pass on by....
And turn deaf ears....to soulful cries?"
I don't know how....God makes the call......
Or if these queries...count at all.
Might be....He'll ask,,,,beyond the stars....
"Could I just see.....your battle scars?"
