In court, a lawyer questioned the judge’s ability to hear a case, pointing out that the judge had once defended it. The judge simply replied, “No, my Lord, I stood where you are… soon, you may stand where I am.” The lawyer froze. Was it a joke—or a prediction?
In court one day, a case was set,
Defendant’s counsel, bold and met.
He cleared his throat, then raised his face,
"My Lord, will you still hear this case?"
The Judge sat back, his smile was wide,
He shook his head, and then replied,
"No, my Lord, I must decline,
This case was once a fight of mine."
The counsel blinked, his brow now tight,
Something here just wasn’t right.
"My Lord? But why address me so?
I’m just a lawyer, this I know!"
The Judge then chuckled, eyes so bright,
A knowing grin, a look so light.
"Because, my friend, not long ago,
I stood right there—I’ve walked this road.
I fought this case, I knew the fight,
Now here I sit, a Judge in white.
The path ahead? Oh, can’t you see?
Soon this bench will call for thee!"
The counsel gasped, the crowd amused,
The courtroom filled with laughter loose.
A Judge today was once like you,
And soon, my friend, you'll wear the shoe!
