giving Christ to the Father

Joseph was his father
but He was in His Father’s house.
The transformation here
giving Christ to the Father
eighteen years before
before the dove
before the river, the Jordan
while Jesus was still a child.
In a real sense become the Christ
the Messiah awoken
leaving his youth
his earthly journey;
Different from these days forward,
Joseph no longer on the stage;
He had become the Son of God.
