A FROG AND SNAKE TALE
Beneath a mirror pond,
lived a frog, with a magic wand,
sparkling under a starry sky,
watched by the moon, the golden eye,
reflecting the story,
of this frog's crafty glory.
"Croak,croak" from a green slimy cloak,
echoing greetings for the nightly meetings,
hearing a croaky reply "danger nearby!".
Suddenly a surprise, fangs with eyes,
slithering in satin, a repulsive repute
t'was snake in a dinner suit.
Fretting, this frog could feel,
being swallowed as this snake's meal.
Croaked the frog to the snake,
"listen to my deal"
"a snake with senses so sharp and clear",
" am a magical frog and can disappear"
"and can make snake with wings to see all things",
with the frog's plead the snake agreed.
Every creature became hysteric,
seeing snake so angelic,
using fangs for wings,
and a hiss that sings.
Forever this snake lost it's pride,
slithering with wings to eternally hide.
This tale and moral for future far,
always be happy who you are

The judgement of God
results from the sin of man
as the Lord's righteous rule
always is seen to stand
The fear of God
is the right response to God's law
so as Joshua obeys God's voice
The walls of Jericho become like straw
The love of God
perfectly casts out fear
as Rahab the prostitute
is mercifully given the all clear
The wisdom of God
is always the correct counsel
as Joshua realised at Jericho
when it leads us to God's perfect will
The Glory of God
was seen here in delivering Jericho
into the hands of Joshua
so to strike satin a defeated foe
