Resurrection

What once was gone
shall now live on

exceeding earth
above all birth

surpassing death
beyond all breath

surviving night
with lasting light:

the Sun does rise
before our eyes

as clouds depart
and we take heart.

Let us rejoice
in deed and voice

embracing day:
begin to pray

through faith to be
and hope to see

with gratitude
your world renewed.

In observation of Easter, Jesus Christ, and in memory of my mother and best friend Jeannette J. Tiess , who passed on April 8, 2020, and is now preserved in God's light and love and in our many wonderful memories.  As God is love, our love is eternal.
