27 Days of Poetry - Day VII



 Ode to Lady Julian
by Tim Reed

Oh Great-heart! 
To know the cost of the cross
to see the divine love
to show the kindness of Christ

You said of noblest desire
"I saw Him, yet I sought Him"

You said in ultimate pursuit
"I had Him, yet I wanted Him"

You knew with perfect intimacy
the free and plenteous giving of His blood

You saw with newborn eyes
the willing suffering of our King

May my heart echo yours
 clarion of devotion sounding even to eternity
