BROTHER'S OF WAR (what if )

Two not one babies fell,
One from heaven one from hell.
The waring factions compromised,
Both were scooped up by either side.

Neither one new about the other,
Though they were born as brother's.
Both were taught as never before,
One preferred peace the other war.

Both were kings of either side,
Fighting one another neither could abide;
Hating teaching of the others side, They
carried on fighting until both had died

Now the rulers of heaven and hell,
The keepers of souls where mankind dwells.
Man strives for peace as the wars still grow,
Who will win only the devil and god truly know.

Poetry by Alan J Ripley
