To the Good Shepherd

Back again after nearly a year. No excuses, just life. This first one brings us back over and over again.

To the Good Shepherd

Walk again,

Good Shepherd . . . .

Speak . . . .

Sound

twenty centuries of sound;

stirring the winds

with your breath,

the sun with your Son!

Let no other winds

drown our weeping;

Let no other sun

dry our tears.

Fold the new-lost

lamb-lost

us-lost

about your shoulders.

Wear us

like a banner

across your heart!

Evelyn Coffey
