Half Mast Flag
In the parking lot, I sat observing
The flag over the shopping mall
I noticed it flying at half-mast
A famous person, it sought to recall
The impact they had on society
Affected people, far and wide
Adored or rejected by the masses
Many in this person did confide
Few in society attain this status
So it's imperative to take note
When observing their credentials
Just what kept their name afloat
When Jesus died on the cross
Was this event really observed
Was it noted by multitudes
Did He get recognition, He deserved
Today, His banner should reign above
Rooftops in every nation
His sacrifice on Calvary's hill
Gives me solace in meditation
God grant that I may hoist a flag
And always make it known
He deserves ultimate recognition
None other could our sins atone !
