Poems by Sis. Robin

Jan. 16th Poem

For Pastor Burton

The Advocate

He stood in the corner away from the crowd

He wanted to speak-to shout it out loud

But not at that moment, it wasn't the time

To speak for the one who'd committed the crime

Some argued quite forcefully

They wanted to show

Why he should be spared

And let free to go

But the Judge was not budging

He was not convinced

The condemned should be spared-for such an offence

With all pleading over-both sides rested their case

You could guess the Judges verdict by the look on his face

As the Judge raised the gavel-the accused started to moan

Then a “Wait!” pierced the crowd as One rushed to the throne

He wasn't much to look at-He had blood on His side

Scars in His hands and tears in His eyes

As he began to speak-the accused lost all fear

And the words that he spoke brought the whole crowd to tears
