Robert W Service - Two Words
Work rating: Medium

`God` is composed of letters three,
          But if you put an `l`
Before the last it seems to me
          A synonym for Hell.
For all of envy, greed and hate
          The human heart can hold
Respond unto the devil`s bait
                    Of Gold.

When God created Gold to be
          For our adorning fit,
I little think he dreamed that we
          Would come to worship it.
But when you ruefully have scanned
          The chronicles of Time,
You`ll find that lucre lends a hand
                    To Crime.

So if you are a millionaire,
          To be of Heaven sure,
Give every penny you can spare
          Unto the sick and poor.
From Gold strike out the evil `ell,`
          And so with letters odd
You can with peace of spirit spell
                    Just GOD.
