The Snake and The Statue

Cooper

No wandering heart

No lustful eye

This principled stone can tell no lie

 

Chiseled from honor 

Raised with virtue

Still the snake never trusts the statue

    Many have doubts even about the most wondrous of principles.

      Indeed! Sad but true.. Perhaps sometimes with good reason of sorts.. for some (maybe most) I believe the past will always have a finger on the future..
