Poem for John 12: 1-8 5th Sunday in Lent



In the midst of time spent together
Aroma filled the air
The sweetness drifting into every corner
Filling every nostril and lung
And out into the world.
Wasteful!
Just imagine what we
(I)
could do with that
for a slight fee for handling
all legit of course
I could help some people
And you will
Those in need
The least, lost and lonely
Will be there always
The simple creation of our greed
But their care is less about helping them overcome our greed
And more about our need
To worship
In praise and deed
Worship drives us to the streets
Where the justice work drives us back to worship
And the streets
And worship
Round and round until they blur into one
And the sweet fragrance once again fills the air
