Death Hewn Love: An Easter Reflection


Death

Man child
Offering self
Exchanging life for love
Ransom of blood, blood moon shadows
His death

Burial

Finished
Mourn beloved
Shaken by grief-filled cries
In hollow of created earth
He lies

Resurrection

Third day
Newness dawning
Blossoming with love hewn
From death; forever lost it’s sting
He lives




In honor of the upcoming Easter weekend my poetic offering is just that, an offering. 
Linking up with dVerse tonight, join us for a verse and the communion of conversation. 
I look forward to exchanging a few with you, thank you for your readership and 
for the comments that I hope you leave, they are of great worth. Blessings ~Apryl

Anatomy of a Heartbreak

goodbyes
tourniquet 'round
cardiac branches grown
thick with intimate conjoinings
severed




I'm linking up with dVersepoets.com's Form For All. Tonight the challenge is the Cinquain. Thank you for your visit to the blog and in advance for your comments, they are greatly appreciated. I'll see you at the pub, ~Apryl
