CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE


CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE


Once upon a time there were two brothers who
Each one believed that their views were true
One would don a uniform of Confederate gray
The other one would chose to wear Union blue

They both had fought many battles
Each trying to keep their cause alive
But regardless which side would win the war
They prayed that the other one would survive

Then one day a very crucial battle would occur 
And each of the generals needed to use their ace
In the heat of this bloody skirmish
The two brothers came face to face

The next thing that was supposed to happen
Was for each of them to pull their trigger
But their brotherly love was far too strong
It's one thing that the generals didn’t figure

When the war ended they both survived
So it didn't matter who had won or lost
Because if only one brother had survived
It would have been much too high a cost

The lesson to be learned from this poetic story is
That no matter what the cost or for what good
One reason that the Son of God gave up His Life
Was for mankind to seek peace and brotherhood
