the journey to the cross
each of the forty days
the days of Lent
each day a precious gift
focused on the Christ
his choices in his life
how he walked the earth
beginning our pilgrimage
in sackcloth, in ashes
aware that these are from the joy
we held onto on Palm Sunday
a way through that darkness
that cruelty in David’s city
those who were supposed to lead
sending Christ to crucifixion
