Notes About The Poem

Whitsun - Pentecost

Imbued with wisdom of the Holy Ghost
     who drifted down with blessings upon them
          day fifty post-Resurrection Sunday,
Apostles, inspired, spoke in many tongues
          for gifts of Baptism Christ had affirmed.

Each year on Whitsun-Pentecost, we meet
     to praise and share that holy wisdom too.
          Alive with deep belief in hearts and souls,
we pray for blessings from the Holy Ghost 
          for gifts of growth in this, our Christian faith.
