A Poem by J. Hampton

a bent,rusted snow shovel leans against the building

an effigy to winter

 

forsythia buds peek warily out at the overcast early Spring morning with

the yellow giggle of children

 

ravens sit in rigid rows across the top of the tomb

doves gracefully hover and flutter above

disregarding the dark harbingers below

 

awaiting the broken seal

for the Son to roll away the stone

and the Sun... will of course choreograph a symphony

when

"IT IS FINISHED"

I like the message behind this...love our Lord. The piece might benefit from an edit and proofread though. I'm sure you'll find the points in question. Good to see you here and hope your Easter Sunday is bountifully blessed by our living Lord. Peace, love and light.

wonderful piece with its analogy to Easter...that stone seems it will never be rolled away with the weather we are having here....Winter will not let go.

but there is always hope.

sometimes we can DO understanding - when there is nothing at all else...
