For God so loved
the world She stepped down
the frequency of Her song
of love until we could hear
the exquisite note of You,
Christ. You wore
this chain-mail body
like a robe of light. sweeping
earth into heaven
in your wake.
Upon the fist
of judgment, You dashed
Yourself -thus opening
the tomb of law,
spilling out only
rose petals of love. You burst
our Luciferian shackles freeing
us to dance
full of
Grace.
You said, “These things
I do you too shall do
and even greater”
With you within us,
with each loving choice
we fledgling Christs make,
we draw closer to
God’s own image.
When we wash
the feet of Judases
within and without,
forgiveness flows as Baptism
spilling
us
into
the
ocean
of love and mercy.
This, then,
is the Holy water
upon which we may
walk.
As we, not
immaculately conceived,
cry out
as this levels lash
slashes to the bone,
yet pick
up
our cross and
walk,
the Messiah
resurrects still
within us.
For God so loves
the world still,
He breaths us,
filling us
with the Wind of the Holy Spirit-
clear, invisible,
except
(so we may be aware of our Father and Mother even here)
It shimmers
with You.
