A Tree from Lebanon

became a cross
as an accompaniment
for our Lord Jesus --

its hardness built for strength,
to hold a Saviour
of the world.

He did not die in vain.
His glory transcended the smell
of death such punishment
inflicted upon His body.

He died for our sins.
Then arose.

(c) 2016 Richard L. Provencher

Richard enjoys writing poems; many of which have been published in Print and Online. He and his wife, Esther are also co-authors of stories and a print novel. They are "born again" Christians and very busy in their church, Abundant Life Victory International, in Bible Hill, Nova Scotia.
