An Astonishing Thing (Poem and Picture 006)--December 7, 2018

An Astonishing Thing (Outside a Hospital Chapel)
See Christ Here Poem+Picture 006--December 7, 2018

Sometimes I forget
what an astonishing thing it is
that a tool of terror
and death
could become a sign of life
and peace,
that now a cross bids welcome
to a space of prayer.

If God can bring hope
from three days' stillness,
perhaps also in
our silent waiting? #seeChristhere
