A poem of faith.
Crossing the River Styx
by DonandVicki

|
Weary world traveler
walked a road in his youth
most men share, a wider path
that all sinful folk dare.
Yet in his latter days
he found a narrower way,
he thought it best taken
before it became too late.
At long last he finally arrived
at a destination we all will find,
the ominous river Styx.
where he met a boatman there.
Boarding the skiff
the boatman asked:
"Are you afraid of what's
on the other side?"
"Why should I be afraid?"
The weary traveler asked,
"My father owns both sides
of the river."
