Think on this… By Sub-Deacon Alex
I wanted to share with you a poem that I wrote when a friend of mine lost their young child. It is appropriate for Passion Week.
How long?
My steps crunch and creek At the spindles above me
The trees look so bleak And the world is ugly
The fall of the year My heart longs
That one tree so pretty Fruit good to the eye
Disobedient bite And now we all die
The fall of man My heart longs
Joy to our world A child is born
Death's finger uncurled And from us he's torn
The fall of a child My heart longs
A sore loser is death You stubbornly sting
With your last noxious breath Drawn from you by the king
The fall of death My heart longs, longs for eternity.
