Bob

Bob, a poor boy that has nothing; will not bow down to any king
Dad, his Lady, and old Nana too; do not know what Bob can do
With a strong faith, Bob walks blindly; a path of Divinity finally
Bringing a poor boy to a giant hill, on top a big bright void to fill
God and only Son, Christ, cry; as BOB is watching and  slowly walking by
                          Looking back, thinking "Shall I ?"

Inspired by Nikko Palmario's Contest " Life without U & Me "
