Risen From The Dead! Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

Risen From The Dead!

Jesus rose from the dead
Mary Magdalene was the first to stand before his grave-thomb
she hadn't seen him yet
lying dead
but she didn't know
He has risen from the dead

she traveled forward the longest
she did not know that He rose from the dead
He just got out of His bed
He has risen from the dead

the same Jesus from Nazareth
crucified on Golgotha
His beloved mother the Virgin Mary had to watch that
while Jesus was hanged, tortured, and mocked
the earth was black for three hours
no sun, no rain, the earth was black!
