When Judgment Comes

     A somewhat harsh, but thought-provoking entry, this Sunday Morning.. But, I do hope that you will like it.

WHEN JUDGMENT COMES

Your palaces will fade away,

ice castles too, shall melt.

When judgment comes that final day,

and the wrath of God, is felt.

*

The kingdoms of the earth will pass,

and lay in dust and ruin,

and their monarchs then be cast,

into the depths, of Hades womb.

*

Their golden crowns will have no worth,

and their jewels no more, shall gleam.

And then the privilege of the birth,

will echo back the mother’s scream.

*

Yes, your palaces will fade away,

ice castles too, shall melt.

When judgment comes that final day,

and the wrath of God, is felt.

*

No conjurors nor wizards save,

the royal bloods, from fate.

The manor lords will then be slaves,

and receive their due, of hate.

 *

The serf will rise into his place,

and seize the throne at last,

while the lord and lady hide their face,

and deny to all, their past.

*

Yes, their palaces will fade away,

ice castles too, shall melt.

When judgment comes that final day,

and the wrath of God, is felt.

*

Then banished from the righteous realm,

they then must learn the truth.

 When judgment comes to overwhelm,

it bears all the needed proof.

 *

The innards of the heart and soul,

will be bared for all to see,

and not one secret held in fold,

as they face, the hanging tree.

*

Their palaces now fade away,

ice castles too, shall melt.

Now judgment comes, this final day,

and the wrath of God, be felt.
