Analysis of All Verses Called Back
Will your writing change when death comes to call,
knowing it’s time for goodbye
Will each word become richer, each memory dear,
in the limited by and by
As finality beckons, will conviction resolve,
each day meaning more than the last
Your faith shaken then stirred, all verses called back
—eternity’s epitaph
