Stephen Pennell Poet Free verse

Bridge of Spies

I fight for the word of law, not a governments meaning 
No easy choices here just right or wrong
Its man's right to stand tall , let no other stop him
If one man is right with his thoughts , thousands can be wrong 
defend that man's human rights above all 
you may take my freedom , but you will never imprison my mind
No nation can resurrect a life and no nation should take one 
The future may hold untold truths or opportunities to save a soul
don't let a politicians pride decide a nation or a man's fate
whether you are a prince or a pauper I will save you 
not the coldness of their words or the chilling wind can stop justice
my name is  Donovan and i will see you on the bridge of spies .
