Allen Brodell - Guilty or Not Guilty

The charge confirmed
not guilty you pleaded
witnesses called
evidence lead
case closed

You testified
not guilty you maintained
your case closed
hopeful you waited
for the verdict word

The verdict announced
guilty as charged
your life scattered
hopes destroyed
what happened?
you wondered?

To God I pray
that He will forgive you
that the forgiveness card
be a spoken word
in your soul and heart!

Allen Brodell
