Two Judges

Two Judges sitting,
side by side,
one condemns,
the other saves lives.

To place someone,
in a cell so cold,
is the job of one,
since time of old.

The other one saves,
He knows their heart,
and forgives their sins,
cleaning every part.

Two Judges sitting,
side by side,
one is truth,
the other one day,
will stand trial.

Sometimes they forget, they forget that we all have faults. A judge and a preacher, two jobs that both have severe consequences if not done to the letter. They will be judged! Blessings to this write and to you my friend, Ron
