A Miracle
Gliding along the currents of air,
I’m lifted by the light that shines on me.
Love permeates my being,
Like a spear piercing my side.
The nails are hammered through
My ragged wrists. I cry out,
My God, my God, why?
Have you forsaken me?
The dusk descends and they lower
My cross, loosen my body
And carry me to my tomb.
I stand on a mountaintop.
Throw yourself down!
God’s angels will save you.
Turn these stones into bread.
You are hungry. Go ahead.
Freedom! I am set free by God’s hand.
Risen at last and the tombstone
Is rolled away.
Contemplation
Drifting through inner space,
My mind will never win a race.
Can you feel the wind blow
Inside and out, it pushes me
To my destination. The spoon stirs
The tea in the cup.
Sweetened with sugar, I drink right up.
I’m falling asleep, but it’s only 9 a. m.
Look at all the trees beginning to bloom.
