Street of Gold

Is your toga clean?

Or you desire the sweetness of the anther

Your leaf is green or black due to lack of manure?

Come!

The bigle rings and still does

It's voice is clarion

Very clear and gentle saying;

"Receive the ticket to the streets of Gold"

For the pure and shining are the streets

Glittering, well refined and polished!

Reception available for all

All that wills and obey

All!

At the bigle's height of clarity

Many are ushered into the party

Without stereotyping or hierarchy

Into the land of golden merry.

Oodles of crowns,

Plethora of awards

Flood the Résumé of those that win,

Echoes of praise and honour

Bequeathed to these wise ones

Who makes it to the street.

Despite accepting all,

It rejects some

Even many

Who fails to identify with the street owner

For He knows His Sheep

And they know Him.

So, receive and accept His Lordship

For He his the maker of the skies

And the seas!!
