Easter Sun day

Easter Sun Day / Way…

(spoken, recorded version 2, version 3)

---

The modeled trust and love of Good Friday,

was vindicated, shown to be "spot on",

when not just one good person, but a spray

of folk who had known love, saw him quite strong,

not mangled and emaciated, and 

bedraggled, close to death himself, from loss,

with more than normal ways to move, at hand -

from one they saw, last week, die on a cross.

Still confident and sure of himself, yet

aware of 

• all their insecurities,

• their needs to learn (and then to not forget),

• their fears, 

• that could lock-up, & almost seize,

• or goad them to determined dogg-ed things

as blood avengers have sometimes been known 

to do unto those who they saw (in rings) 

as perpetrating an'mals round a bone.

• their needs for food, and space, and journey too,

to let them process things, and start off fresh,

• & finally a job, good work to do

to start a brand new culture off, enmeshed

with this ol' world, but starting a new day

of loyal love, embodying on Earth,

& in the heavens. 

We'd all like to say, 

as messengers of his cartell; "New birth",

or maybe "New creation" has arrived!

He's speaking it at first through this message

he's given us to spread (while we survive),

with his own spirit's help, his wind's  "breath" age:

He is the one who started off the end

of all the stories good, that ever were.

He said the time is come, it's up, my friend;

fulfilled, enacted, to this pointy blurr.

The danger, problem, complicating thing,

the threat to goodness ever winning out,

is soon to be revealed, and then its sting

will do its worst, and that will be allowed.

The very time when everything  seems lost,

when God himself seems absent from the scene,

will be when he is closest; swords are crossed

or maybe worlds in tandem for a season.

And if we want his leadership, well  now

is just the time to wake up to yourself,

and let the spirit in this man somehow

join in your life, and give you his good health,

in time, with tasks the doctor gives to do.

For that's the thing, he wants us to join in,

& let this new creation start in you

(& me, it's us) together. We're his bling!

So, firstly all agendas that you had

(for moving things ahead, or fixing up) -

Let go of them! Look up. He's your new Dad!

And trust him with your life. Drink from his cup!

His rising up, from death, & from this Earth

to heaven, to be made the human one

in charge of ev'rything that has real worth

is proof that he himself's our Way, our Sun!
