strangers grip palms, bond at bus stops
grins by glory, pilgrims unite
onward, hosannas and hellos true
buzz on the street: whisper, plot, might
centuries of destruction and war ring doom
age the days of tension, hoping
who can save us from our plight?
bright spring moon, free, feasting
friends wash feet; bread, wine multiply
garden ghosts stir; children play, pray
crowds of citizens chant, cheer “crucify”
believe deceive, turn Love a bloody way
nails, thorns, swords and thirst all killing
three men suspend on wood beams die
friends, followers help Love, crying
into tombs of time, sabbath, vigil, praying
God’s goodness shakes ground, surprise
into churches, candlelight, stories, singing
Jesus has come back! He Lives! Arise!
