Proving Ground

A short poem about choices shaping eternal truths in the battlefield of the mind.

Life above! Death below!
Wrapped in carbon,
Soul to show!

A choice! A choice!
Ponder slow—
If Truth, rejoice! Eternal know!

The proving ground, a battlefield!
A place to grow, why hide it so?
The proving ground, seed revealed,
To us, to them, heart signs flow.

Prepare! Prepare!
The Question; Love or Hate,
Which do you create?

—Noisy Wren
