Two coins for the ferryman, <br />And your passage is paid. <br />To that dark nether land, <br />Where you will be laid. <br /> <br />Two coins for the ferryman, <br />Just dropp them in his palm. <br />On his ferry he stands, <br />So pale, bony and calm. <br /> <br />Two coins for Charon, <br />He must have recompense. <br />On the Styx rowing on, <br />For two copper cents. <br /> <br />2/6/11 Alton Texas<br /><br />Juan Olivarez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/two-coins-for-the-ferryman/
