Analysis of Beauty For Ashes
Beauty For Ashes
There they stood robbed of everything
Some of them were left with hardly anything;
Robbed of promises and scripts, hopes, feet trapped in weed
Dire danger and what's left was a desperate need;
The root of all evil trapped their feet it seemed like forever hence
They stood silent, taken aback in owe, in reverence…
So he mercifully, once twice gave them the promise
The thunder was heard
So He once, twice, three times made her His lady.
