Lent fallen

francisDm,

Once the skies now down to dirt

From flight to fallen fatal state

For whim of freedom lost the heights

Alone discarded doomed to dust

Unmourned by soaring eagle wings

It lies untended sorry plight.

Sin scorns us thus makes naught of grace

and glory grandeur heaven heights

Makes writhing wretched wallow state

Inheritance through wanton ways

through rubble paths and gutter routes

to disenchantment final goal.

But yet like prodigal return

The sinner has love’s graceful chance

The Father waits and gentle calls

To banquet times and pastures new

“Forever will I take you back

Return to me with all your heart.”
