and the dogwoods opened overnight....
and azaleas...
For Easter:
Royalty
He was a plain man
and learned no latin.
and learned no latin.
Having left all gold behind
he dealt out peace
to all us wild men
and the weather
he dealt out peace
to all us wild men
and the weather
He ate fish, bread,
country wine and God’s will
country wine and God’s will
Dust sandalled his feet
He wore purple only once
and that was an irony
and that was an irony
(A Widening Light: Poems of the Incarnation, edited by Luci Shaw [1984], 91)
