One Day

Wrote while seeing Handel's Messiah, but it suits today, too.

One Day

Because there really was a time
when God was dead,
and heaven broke,
and evil had forever won,
the Earth committed to the devil’s rule,
and all that had been made, was made to decay.
But nothing carries on
for long that way:
I gather that it lasted
only one full day.

  2. Thank you! It was startling to finally really realize that it WAS something serious, that they didn't understand that he would be resurrected. They had to think about what it was going to be like in a world without God.

    Thanks & you too!
