Green as the Grass

22 March 2006, 8:03 AM

Still saddened by the plight
and wondering when it ends

if it ends

and I remember that I once heard
a very wise man warn me against
striving to rush the process of healing
for we are healed
delivered from our crosses
to bear more crosses

I understand it never ends
this side of Eternity

And oh, how I long for the other side
to see the side of the leaf that meets the sun
directly
unfiltered and green as the grass of the lea
