A Bucketful Of Nuts
On the outskirts of a small town, there was a big, old
pecan tree just inside the cemetery fence. One day,
two boys filled up a bucketful of nuts. They sat down
by the tree, out of sight, and began dividing them.
"One for you and one for me, one for you and one for
me," said one boy.
Several dropped and rolled down toward the fence.
Another boy came riding along the road on his bicycle.
As he passed, he thought he heard voices from the
inside of the cemetery. He slowed down to investigate.
Sure enough, he heard, "One for you and one for me,
one for you and one for me." He just KNEW what it
was. "OH, MY", he shuddered, "It's God and the Devil
dividing up the souls in the cemetery." He jumped back
on his bike and rode off.
Just around the bend, he met an old man with a cane,
hobbling along. "Come here quickly," said the boy.
"You won't believe what I just heard! Satan and the
Lord are down at the cemetery dividing up the souls!"
The old man said, "Beat it, kid. Can't you see it's
hard for me to walk?" When the boy insisted though,
the man hobbled to the cemetery. Standing by the
fence, they heard, "One for you and one for me, one
for you and one for me."
The old man whispered, "Boy, you've been telling the
truth. Let's see if we can see the Lord Himself."
Shaking with fear, they peered through the fence, yet
were still unable to see anything. The old man and the
boy gripped the wrought iron bars of the fence tighter
and tighter as they tried to get a glimpse of the
Lord.
At last, they heard, "One for you, one for me, and one
last one for you. That's all of them. Now let's go
get those nuts by the fence, and we'll be done."
THEY SAY THE OLD MAN MADE IT BACK TO TOWN A FULL FIVE
MINUTES AHEAD OF THE BOY ON THE BIKE
