On The Cross Poem by Midifo Yearns

Naked on the cross
exposed for all to see
a spectacle uncovered
defaced upon the tree

Charge sheet is dishonest
names they call, untrue
trial is sham discovered
verdict not his due

Love breaks through the pain
and cross becomes a throne
to which invitees are many
and endless mercy shown

Then from his naked body
out of wounded side
pours forth his living spirit
to bathe us in its tide

So that in love eternal
we may our true self find
learn to love as he has done
with hearts, both true and kind.
