Sharing few lines I’ve put on this week’s Parish Bulletin. My attempt at poetry!! More importantly a memory around a man who made a difference.
Who will
roll the stone away
they wondered
as they wandered
to the empty tomb.
Borrowed!
like so many other rooms;
the Bethlehem stable
the Upper Room
Martha and Mary’s kitchen
where great things happened
welcome offered
food prepared and shared
lessons in listening
borrowed yes, but always
willing to repay
Repay!
every act of kindness
every word of encouragement
every step taken
every difference made
Made …..
the tomb was made by man
He was made of God.
The stone was rolled away.
He is risen.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
(VS – Good Friday 2018)
