The Saviour (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

God did make a promise when sin did come
that a saviour, a lamb to sacrifice will be provided
and the whole Old Testament does point to Him
where it speaks about worship and returning to God,
where God as a human on the cross makes reconciliation,
even the Roman soldiers are totally astonished
as nobody can talk away or disguise the love of God
and of His omnipotence even those guarding the grave do know
when that rock in front of the grave did break into pieces.
When Jesus did rise as God from death,
He had compassion with Mary Magdalene in the garden,
did tell her not to touch Him
as He had to go back to His Heavenly Father
after He had paid the ransom for you and for me.
