Dawn Breaks

walked slowly to the grave

heavy with ointments 

sun breaks silver

purple across the whole horizon

she went to attend the dead

but instead

was attended by the living


cleaning up from the haze

a great destruction

a shaft of light breaks

a voice is heard

He descends

I feel His wounds

    Hosannah to the Lamb


Easter weekend in the temple

prayers of dedication

He comes

brilliant white with a voice

of rushing waters


My darkest hour

He brings His light

my fingers trace the holes in 

His hands as He holds me


My dawn breaks
