Francis

Francis (March 2021)

Fear not the unembraceable 

The leprous nor the fierce

Rather cover that which frightens

With love that is pierced

Step down from off the high horse

Upon which you think you rise

Come face to face with humility

In the mirror of another’s  eyes.

If there’s no seeing pass the leprosy

If no loving the untamed

Then we’ll never see in our eyes

That you and I are the same.

Please wrap this cloak around you

Feel the warmth ebbing through

Sense the power of the Holy One

Uniting me and you.
