The cow died <br />When the rooster crowed <br />All the seeds were planted <br />All the crops sowed; <br />No more land of milk and honey <br />No more selling forgiveness <br />For the proper money, <br />The Rose bloomed <br />With singular salvation <br />Upon the sunrise <br />That alit all creation. <br /> Peter cried- <br />Judas died, <br /> May both by God <br />Find forgiveness, <br />In a Land <br />Far, far away <br />From mankinds mortal mess... <br /> For, I have been with them both, <br />In my own way; <br />As I wander and look just as much <br />For that perfect place, <br />And that perfect day. <br /> - The hope of us all <br />Standing here with our backs to the wall, <br />Just may be <br />Held in the scarred hands of Eternity.<br /><br />Smoky Hoss<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-chance-and-hope-for-all/
