Resurrected
Enclosed in eggshell
darkness
trembles the earth
aghast
mouth of rocks
cracked sighing
veil of temple
ripped up
tempest of fear
has scattered
wavering faith
of disciples
at the foot
of the Cross
are grieving
Mary
with few others
believing
flames in the
distance
from abyss
screeching
and howling
with glee
pouncing their win
over Christ
the Light
they think deceased
they can now
spread evil
with ease
from His Light
not having
to flee
eggshell
cracks open
third day
splendor of Risen
lights up
heaven and earth
and disciples
return with Him
to sup
rejoice lovers of love
sing
spring birds
His song
ring bells of the sky
Angels
with trumpet
and lyre
rejoice for truly
is risen
His blood our sins
has forgiven
all believers
united rejoice
with His Father
has united us
in love
and the Spirit
in the glory of
their joy
