the day already long
enough
starting with the betrayal
the Sanhedrin judging
Jesus
taking Him to Pilate
hearing her own people
shouting, “Crucify Him!”
angry words in Jerusalem
the home of her ancestor
David
shocked by the turn
from their words on Palm Sunday
suffering for those six
hours
at the feet of Jesus
at the foot of the cross
as His lifeblood poured
out
helpless to stop it
wanting to cry out
but caught in the prophecy
God’s plan being worked
out
Her son the sacrifice
to free all His people
