Haiku of readiness
The Baptiser came;
a voice, calling, defiant.
Preparing a path.
In the wilderness;
broken stones and tangled weeds
of human despair.
Through the wilderness
one is coming to bring hope;
a way must be found.
It is drawing near,
this strange kingdom of light, life
and revolution.
Make yourselves ready,
bring forth the repentance fruits;
grace and compassion.
Through the scrub he comes
with his words of love and life;
most unexpected.
