Curiosity

Did I follow in His wake,

Did I think Him just a fake?

Did I help to feed the hungry multitudes?



Was I stoned against a wall?

Had my soul so far to fall

That my prayers were all directed to St Jude?



Was I mangled by a lion?

Did I pray as I lay dyin'?

Was I tortured by that Roman known as Nero?



Did I feel Jesus' breath

as I felt the sting of death?

Did I die a mangy coward

or a hero?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Merely "Curiosity..." nothing more. Do we believe in reincarnation? If so... who were we? Answer: Ourselves... always ourselves... and always with a higher goal in sight.

Richars,
As i read this piece and reread it a tuned played in my head. With pronunciaciation on the proper syllables, this to me places you up with Lerner and Lowe's tune that Rex Harrison verbalized. "Why Can't a Woman Be More Like A Man."
To me Jesus, A Hero He is and always will be. Love, peace and freedom, Linda
