I understand
Not all believe
And some who do
Still canβt conceive
Around the world
Are empty tables
Vacant temples
And fairy fables
Every single
Human being
Is more aware
To what theyβre feeling
It drives right home
If you are threatened
Makes you think
You were forgetting
When asked to do
We get to choose
But when weβre told
We just have too
So at this time
When you are asking
Is there a reason
You are expecting
To make some sense
And understand this
You now have time
To see what you miss
On this day
So close to Easter
Golden eggs
Loose their lustre
All attention
From before
Different now
We want more
More help to get
More space to grow
More peace of mind
More love to show
The common thought
We all canβt see
Was always there
Was always free
The most important
And most prized
Above all else
Are human lives
On Good Friday
When youβre alone
Think of the son
From Fatherβs throne
It doesnβt matter
If you believe
Just think right now
Why you grieve
So much you had
And did ignore
What in the world
Was it all for
One day ahead
Or one behind
If you stop
You will find
That all along
As some are working
Just like the jobless
Weβre all searching
For that purpose
And some value
Satisfaction
And some love too
Beyond all measure
And a doubt
No greater love
Has more clout
The one and only
In all of history
An innocent man
Murdered violently
For the reason
And so pure
A man on earth
For spirit cure
All the crime
And all the sins
To say βOh God!β
What does it mean
It doesnβt matter
If you believe
Look past the facts
Religious creed
I have not said
And most do know
The greatest love
Was evilβs show
No one is wrong
No one is right
To ask for proof
Just shows your fright
How can we curse
And blame a man
Who only gave
All he can
When we cry
And ask for more
Why did we not
Thank him before
Upon the faces
Pressed to windows
Distorted views
God only knows
When we cry
And feel sorry
Godβs own tears
Know this story
He has given
We have taken
Nowβs an offer
To awaken

Wonderfully written my dear friend. A verse so eloquently penned about the only perfect person to ever dawn the Earth,
but was brutally murdered for his teachings and belief system. I always remind people in their quest to be perfect what happened to the only person who was and their fate.
