Jesus, Holy Week

Mary Elyn Bahlert 
I've held tightly to this stone, this hot anger.
My heart hurts, my heart hurts.
I've been walking my life alone,
forgetting.
I see your grieving eyes, your tears
as you linger with me, from that cross.
Your gaze follows me, sorrow,
you watch me forget - my sin, my Self-forgetting.
I kneel - a return!
Allow your Light to spark my heart,
my Self-forgetting,
my Spirit - grateful.

			I am a spiritual seeker, a seeker who has "taken a drink from many cups."  I love to accompany others on the deeper journey to witness to their True Self.  Now a writer, photographer and poet, I have retired from full-time ministry as a pastor in downtown Oakland, CA.
