Notes About The Poem

So, those are my feet! So if you are not vegan you are going to hack them off for your soup. Why?:

My poem for Easter 2017

 

- Clean Feet -

Humble yourself  in unshod feet
Burning hot sand between the toes
Green palm leaves under bright blue sky
Listen to the story and guard it well

Read the writing in the sand before the tide comes
Judgment power, as lightning before thunder
Tell smiles and hugs instead of your pain and tears
Love will always consist, miracles are shown before

Anne-Lise, I came back to this one to thank you for everything. Even for saying U are not Christian. This poem is an invitation to Hawaii - any island spot & sands. Yet, the Judgment Tide is on the way, and writing on the the sand. Anne-Lise, believe me, the best Christians are those who preach with their lives, not showing up in buildings called "church for Jesus" of "our kind." Shalom shalom and Paaske goes on!

- We have many churches here in Norway, Anil - However, they are mostly empty - They are used for Christmas, Easter, confirmations, weddings, baptism and burial - If anyone has the desire to go in for a prayer ... the doors are locked - I agree with your last line - Thanks for your kind visit and lovely comments :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Anne-Lise, an Easter tour de force! I have never seen/read Judgment described so well as an incoming tide. Original and spiritual in every way. Thanks- Happy Easter. How do Norweigians say Easter/ Pas or PAAS? (in 100 years I might write poems in your native language. Brava!)
