SATURDAY SPICES

I’m taking spices wrapped in gauze.
I’m taking them no matter what.
I know they’ve sealed him off from view.

I know the guard will drag my frame.
I know I know I know but still I’ll do
What I can do. I will. You, too?

You said you’d make the trek with me
To borrowed tomb. You said it, true?
So meet me in the vale at dawn. . .

Somehow we’ll trudge the spices’ bag.
Somehow we’ll make it to His side,
Somehow till my heart’s torn and won.

SATURDAY VOICES

Along the way I hear a voice,
A tender one. I look to spy
But no one’s there, no breeze to tend.

I think I’ve lost my mind, my God!,
What’s left, yet voices there to hear,
So quickly glance around the bend

So certain that I heard—in fact—
His voice, there, yes. Imagining.
I’m blurred. I’m faint. I’m tottering

And so of course there in the din
But then, oh, there it is, a voice
Like His. I’ve collapsed—wondering.

Welcome to the 'Finest', grant!

I've read several of your sermons on another thread, enjoyed them and appreciated your taking the time to write them.

We have a wonderful group of FRiends here, come more often.

Plus a certain 'wolf' who resides here could use a little preachin' to, or so the ladies think. : )
