Haiku of wonder
In the beginning.
Great opening to a book
exploring myst’ry.
How did it begin?
Big bang; the divine Logos,
sparking in the dark?
John writes of the Word;
one with God, present; cosmic
primogenitor.
Verses of wonder:
through him came life, bringing light
for all humankind.
The defiant light
shines through the gloom. The darkness
cannot put it out.
Throughout history
the Word comes, speaking God’s life.
Not many listen.
More wonder! The Word
becomes human; one of us,
sharing in our life.
Grace and truth have come
to us in Jesus, God’s Son.
Jesus makes God known
