PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Perhaps the sun had ascended to noon

when the Son of God stood before the tomb

of Lazarus, and the stone had been rolled away.

And Jesus, God's Word and Love in the flesh also knew

perfectly that very, very soon,

He, crucified to death for our sake,

must also, having shed His blood, lay

enclosed in a borrowed tomb   

in burial, but death could not presume

to hold Him:  Who came forth alive before the break

of dawn on that Pascal Day.
