Holy days and holidays
ushered in between the rush,
bring a slowing down,
or temporary halt at best.
Then, it’s back to the pace
of pressure; quick and fast,
As if the Lord did not make every day.
This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice in it and be glad. – Psalm 118:24
In the days that follow Easter,
My soul sings in and through
The brightness of the week.
Christ is risen,
Yes, indeed!
The sun it shines so brightly,
Broadening its range
Even when its hidden,
Bringing awe into my gaze.
Christ is here,
Yes, Indeed!
Source of love and mercy,
Raiser up of patience,
Lifter of all souls.
Christ forever saving,
Yes, Indeed!
