Pope Joan and Joan Of Arc

Pope Joan and Joan of Arc Mysterious women Both known For their parts For hundreds of years Hidden by history But time would reveal What some would not let be Women dressed like men Having Divine reason Chosen by God Each in her season The Thirteenth and Fourteenth centuries Is where each lived Did one know the other Or was another life lived Saint Hood and disgrace Would divide Their purpose in life In which the one lied The other a warrior Undisguised Making France what it is Though a martyr died History still hides What men would divide Why was it disgrace For a woman in that place But the two yet different Are still the same What they did back then Has the same name We now ask the question Why a Saint and the other a shame We now look to God Who has given it a name
