Happy Easter

Happy Easter

I have created the Easter Story using 25 photos of Christian Art and have uploaded them all to my Blog this morning. Beginning with a beautiful stained glass image of the Last Supper, continuing with interrogation of Jesus, the scourging, the Crucifixion, the anguish of Mary, his Mother, the Resurrection, and a Blessing.
I am also sharing a poem I wrote years ago.

Good Friday

I watched
as they beat Him,
and I wanted to hear him cry out.

I stood by
as they accused Him,
and I wanted to hear Him protest.

I followed
as he climbed the hill,
wanting to see him flee.

I cringed
as they hammered the nails,
and I wanted to cry out.

I stared
as they raised him on a tree,
and I wanted to protest.

I stayed
as the sky grew dark,
though I wanted to flee.

I listened
as he forgave me,
and I began to weep.

I saw
as I looked into his eyes,
and I believed.
