Chapters have Turned

April 5, 2020

and so the chapters have

passed and the pages turned

and we have arrived at​​ 

the next point​​ in the story​​ 

that started​​ with Birthing Jesus,​​ 

that​​ cute and warm child

so well behaved and​​ 

beautiful in a simple setting

candles providing

the glow of hope and love.

Living Jesus was the next stage

with its vignettes of teaching

but it was not as warm, nor edifying

as some had hoped with his left-leaning

life view; those pages more easily​​ 

skipped over or ignored

but now we are at Dying Jesus

and there is much more interest

in the sacrifice for him to make

than the sacrificial living he

espoused.
