The Hill

So here we are again

Back on Calvary Hill

How many more crosses

Do you think you can fit

Up here with me?

Not many more

As far as I can see

But now you wish to know me

Be with me

Now you can finally see

Understand

What I mean

That life is precious

But so is death

And no one should die alone

Or be without me

Such simple comfort

Is all that is needed

How can you not listen

To someone who is pleading

How can you not help

Someone who is bleeding

How many more times

Must we journey

Up to Calvary Hill

 

 

And with this work, I have come to the end of my Easter Series. It has been emotive, writing the poems to the backdrop of war. Such a war that will change again, our perception of each other.

But it has also been joyful for me, to see many of you view, fave and comment on my work as it has progressed through Holy Week. Thank you all so much.

It gives me hope that the Light of the human spirit still burns bright.
