A few things that make life fuller and more enjoyable

Did You?

by jaybird1

The time shall come, for you, for all
when we shall take our final rest
and we should face that final call,
if we have lived our lives as blest.

Did we search for truth each day.
Could we laugh and shed a tear.
Were there friends along the way.
Did we have and conquer fear?

Did we wrestle earthly greeds
and cross each bridge whereas it stood.
Did we fill some others needs
and smell sweet flowers in the woods?

Was there someone we could love,
who returned it every day.
Did some wondrous power above
lend us courage on the way?

When our turn has come to go
and life's joys and woes surcease;
We should then most surely know,
we shall have eternal peace.
