Good Friday
Event that happened long ago,
The departure of a rainbow;
Because it had adorned the sky,
More than anyone could comply...!
He was pigeon among eagles,
Many played the roles of seagulls;
His preaching pricked their hardened sculls,
They soon turned like pins and needles...!
A deer have a say before lions?
A lamb standing in defiance?
In a land known for tit-for-tat,
Who would dare to bell the hate cat?
By slaughtering the lamb they thought:
Good lesson to rebels is taught;
Though the lamb went through much blood-shed,
No fur of his glory got shred...!
This is, hence, Good Friday is good,
Goodness embraced the cursed wood;
Empires and kingdoms give away,
Their pride before Holy Cross Way...!
Good Friday is, yet, not an act,
That got ended like a war-pact;
Crucifixion is daily fact,
You and I merrily enact...!
