Standing in the Jordan
feeling something happening
dripping with the water
repenting, being baptized
A commotion in the river
in the demeanor of John
protesting before the one with him
not wanting to lower him down
Somehow I was drawn
my eyes and my ears
to the man in the water
in the arms of John
Suddenly the sky opened up
a tear in the heavens
a voice from above
anointing him with more than water
Power falling on him
commissioned in that moment
walking from the river
to go and heal the world
