Woman, here is your son – v2

these words of Jesus
choked out, in anguish,
“Woman, here is your son,”
for he would soon leave her;
he would die in just minutes.
these words of Jesus
to provide for his mother
remaining a good son
even on the cross.

in the same, with John,
the disciple that He loved
at the feet of Jesus
with His mother
at the foot of the cross
saying these words,
“Here is your mother.”
Adopting him as family;
naming him as brother.
