Poems

‘Jesus is Lord’

“JESUS IS LORD !”-
Jesus is, – well,
kind of,
sort of,
‘Lord’-

Three words he said and by them
he invites:
Just ‘Come to me’-

A ‘Christ’
David was,
well-oiled of God.

Im-Pietas, the severing of that cord
umbilical
not by the Mother-God
but by the wilful child
who wants no more
of creature-hood.

“TRUST HIM ABSOLUTELY”
this Jesus,
Lord
and Son of Light,
of Holiness.

Bread and Basin,
Towel and Table
ever for His followers
entwined;

The Mystery of faith is
wafer thin,
and vast
with the Wonder of the One Who Is,

__”Return Love for Love”__
is what he said to do.
When all was said and done, this was his heart’s deep cry,-
‘return love, for love’.

The Spirit of the Leading Lord
takes to the floor,
begins the dance,
casts off the mourning veil,

There is communion in His death,
He
with us
within us,
taking us.

Communion is a Longing
of my life
and loins:

Ordained,
Ordered, In Order
Towards—What?
People,
Celebration,
