The Smell of the Spices

How strong it must have been
the pungent sweet colors
the smell of the spices
that he had been buried in
when Christ came to them
on the walk on that road
when he came into their presence
cutting the tension in the upper room
Christ alive before them
The truth, the light, a way,
changing the world forever
