Wonder of Christ by Peter Menkin
by Peter Menkin A short poem reflecting on Christ and what He brings to us... You as reader may find this a refreshingly short poem, that makes a point using threes. The implication of the use of threes is to elicite a sense of the Trinity's presence. As the poet, I have license to say such things and hope they are within reach by the imagination of the reader. A special artform, poetry does allow an expression of experience, love, observation that other forms are unable to communicate. by Peter Menkin Wonder, wonder, wonder; starry night. Christ. Delight in Eucharist, Sunday morning. Waiting. Wonder, wonder, wonder. How great. You are. So kind. So kind. So kind. What mercy. Love.
