Happy Rosh Hashanah and High Holiday
WHOSE MESSIAH: Happy Rosh Hashanah
Upon a tree, He was displayed ignominiously
Arms stretched from East to West for our Shabbat Rest
Body pulled along the North-South axis
That is the price of Love, the width of Shalom
You ask if the Creator erred in allowing the Fall
Or had He erred in permitting Eve to succumb
Yet He, Himself did atone, Messiah took the Cross & paid it all
Love paid it all to have my errant human heart
How wonderfully cruel, How powerfully glorious
Confounding: God upon a Cross, naked and pulled apart
Prodigal in Forgiveness, Wholeness, Scarred and Righteous.
