The Return


Father, I must return
to the place of my birth,
where sands make waves
in the wind, reshaping
the Earth- please once more-
they weep for Us now,
in travails of unknown tomorrows
that furrow the brow.

They are sinking in the quicksand
of evil affairs- can't You hear it
in all of their prayers?
Let me descend again-
the people need You and Me,
to put the Temple right,
along the Gallilee- oh Father,
give Me leave to again enter
Your world's air, and make
the people realize
that we still care.
