Extravagant Love – v2

Of Man, of Woman

of the King, the Creator

We see the prodigal son,

the fatted calf, sacrificed

we see the fragrant oil

washing of his feet,

anointing his head,

a gift of her heart

The washing with tears,

wiping with her hair

Uncommon, extravagant gifts

poured out in love

Lessons before the sacrifice

of the lamb

that Passover

Long ago
