Inspired by Easter 2017
Below is a poem by Vermont poet Ama Hannan. It was inspired by the resurrection of Jesus Christ and written on the evening of Easter 2017. In worship, it could be used as a call to worship, as a centering prayer, as a projected meditation, and in many other ways. Create!
The Son/the Sun/
He is Risen above
the Lover the Mother
the Maker of all!
The creative spark/
the firebrand of Justice/
the flying Dove of Peace/
the Lamb of God/
the Ewe of Grace/
the Shepherd and the Sheep
…our Self and our Holy Spirit
Spirit of the Living Waters,
Oh eternally Living Waters of life
Born out of the Living Water,
every one of us: its Child.
PassOver. Easter. Spring.
PAX et LUX
