Is Up To You! Poem by Eric Cockrell

god didnt have hands...
so she gave you yours,
to do the work,
to extend to those in need.
god didnt have a heart...
so she gave you yours,
to feel their suffering,
their needs, their hurts.
god didnt have feet...
so she gave you yours.
to walk the path of truth
to the very end.
god didnt have a soul...
so she gave you yours,
tied to the souls
of all that live!


whether you are Christian,
Buddhist, Muslim, atheist,
or whatever...
the only effective salvation
for this world...
is up to you!
