Humanity

HUMANITY

Humanity, do we believe in you? Can we find the divine
Underneath the newborn flesh? The coat of many colors -
Mankind manifested by God’s breath, begins so sweet.
Ailing from the sin of disobedience, an array of nails - rusted
Nubs on hands and feet. Christ transposed it all. The
Innocent lamb - his humanity pleading, teardrops bleeding,
Tethered to His love for all - helpless & hopeless humanity.
Yes, i believe! In humanity’s salvation - the rainbow’s haloed grace.
