In the middle of the park <br />a dog suddenly ceased to bark <br />and I stood there still to wonder <br />how it was silenced by thunder <br />But I did not fear <br />nor shed a tiny tear <br />for I already knew what it meant <br />for, in all my days on this earth spent <br />I've seen sin and its end - <br />the strong arms of justice never bend. <br />It came to me as a fresh warning: <br />surely the days of reckoning are coming, <br />So, each man must stand for himself <br />For none will account for his sayings and sins - but only himself.<br /><br />Comfort Ndlovu<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-days-of-reckoning/
