Your shame is over

Haiku for the era of the Spirit

Children of Zion,

it's the time for rejoicing,

like rain after drought.

The seasons of loss

have passed; the promise is made{

full silos and vats.

The years of distress,

of grasshopper and locust,

dismissed and restored.

Eat, be satisfied,

celebrate God's love, mercy;

your shame is over..

Your shame is over.

Know that your Lord is with you,

there is none but me.

My spirit is poured

out upon all humankind,

much dreams and visions.

Your sons and daughters,

the elderly, even slaves,

will share God's spirit.

There will be portents.

The new age is upon you;

no one need miss out.
