Lifes Metaphor
Life’s Metaphor
Written: by Miracle Man

Life is a scrimmage for eternity,
At birth we’re put in the game,
and how we perform is crucial.
It’s a time of proving what we’re worthy of,
And even though we may fumble, God will forgive,
and allow us to return to the game.
At games end, we’re either called up or we’re left behind
So we can’t be content to just mark time occupying the bench.
We must stay actively engaged in the game,
For God alone, knows the expiration date on our contract.
Tom
“The hardest thing to learn in life,
is which bridge to cross and which to burn.”
