At The Vision Of Apostle Paul, Then And Now

1.  Then

 

Saul always hasd some problem with his eyes,

and certain truths too far for him to see,
as when he watches Stephen (as he dies

beneath a storm of stones hurled furiously).

 

2.  Now

 

Years hence:  Christian, the Apostle Paul returns

to that same ground where lingers a sad link

to his dark past.  In noon's glare, he discerns

strewn stones, once blood red, but now gold-flecked pink.

 

Starward
