A PILE OF SHOES!

A PILE OF SHOES!

At first glance it is a pile of shoes,
and the shoes vary in size.
The reason for the pile of shoes,
they represent people that died.

Some are very small and some are large,
others  are in between.
They all represent people of the Holocaust,
whose faces cannot be seen.

The pile  does not represent everyone,
who died at the hands of men.
Their life was blotted out,
by hatred that brought about sin.

Hatred has no place for men,
to hold against another.
All men are created equal,
but only in Jesus Christ are you brothers.

These shoes are found in a museum,
dedicated to victims of the Holocaust.
It shows the result of hatred,
where the hater and the hated, both lost.
