The Great Physician

THE GREAT PHYSICIAN the gray sky of a virus, angry furrowed brows - scowling, coughing - not laughing. what affectation the globe hurling toward fear. illness towering, over the marketplace, toppling blocks. Control harangues, mocks. who is really pulling the strings? the jester jingling his fool’s hat, carrion of a mock scepter - his feet shuffling us back in time to the folly of our ways — “falalalalala,” he sings. the Great Physician waits for our call 3/2/2020 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. John 14:27 ESV But when he heard it, he said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. Matthew 9:12 ESV

Powerful creative poem for the state of fear people are living in with the threat of the coronavirus. It's a comfort that we can trust The Great Physician for our well-being as our life is in His hands.
