God On Trial Part 2

If they are truly your children beloved Then he’s not different!” Belial mocked “Since he was your son as they all should be,” Continued the devil pointing at the jury “Any one of them could’ve easily saved them all And restored them as though before their fall! How is he different can you tell me Lord?” Pursued Belial sounding bored “I may call him son but he’s truly me We are one as you all did see.” Answered God in a matter of fact Trying to make a good impact But Belial was ready and clever And he refused to give up ever “That was not a second trial” Blurted the devil in denial “When you decide to try us again You should send us all back to heaven And then from there we can see If anyone will touch your wicked tree.” “I think we have enough to decide,” Interrupted the judge looking to the side “The jury will provide their verdict in a while And I pray, don’t be so hostile.” And the verdict was in and everyone waited The judge looked at in and then stated “The jury finds the defendant guilty And God has to apply the devil’s plea. Everyone should be restored to paradise Free of charge, without a price.” God laughed and then disappeared And then, as though a mist has cleared Belial and the jury realized That heaven was as earth disguised They had never been banished from it But they had deemed themselves unfit Then Belial disappeared as well And the people were awakened from the spell They realized that it all was a legend And they had nothing to repair or mend They had been in heaven all the time But through all their war and crime They ruined the heaven that they were given Though all their sins were always forgiven Now they could see the world anew And live their lives pure and true
