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
