The Trilogy of Life---part3

THE DECISION

So where does it all end, or shall we say begin? The bereavement of one's died out, or the pity of those coming in?

Now on this globulous ball of infancy with such a fragile shell, Oh, to withstand the rigors ahead, the plight on us befell.

To teach of fellow beings fair and values forgotten long, of vanity and faithfulness and of knowing right from wrong.

Then on to new worlds and rules behold, each world of greater being, of lovlier valleys and beauty abound and vista's of peace
serene.

And to our makers messenger, reported here some time ago, and cast aside by mortal kings who considered him their foe.

In hopes he is forgiving, to us mortals to receive him well, when at last he comes to call on us, the millenniums of rift he'll quell.

For travel does he, from world to world, a most unthinkable task, to sow the seed of what lies ahead for new worlds our souls to
grasp.

For grasp must they, these souls divided, in knowing which way to tell, he has sown the seed for us to decide, whether heaven ------ or whether hell............
