The Body [Incarnation - italian sonnet]

by David Crimsons

Snow-capped mountains atop emerald green plains

Deep blue waters weave through without discrimination

The never sleeping city takes a drag, something coughs in pain

Snow melts somewhere in the world, must be my imagination

A robin flaps its wings, through the air, without aim

A silent garden it lands in, to behold the white carnations

The city grows and grows and grows without realize of drain

To flap and flap and flap again the, poor robin felt no such sensation

 

What does it take for man to realize the wrong it has committed?

Must God face pain after pain after pain before we are to admit it?

To constantly take without much remorse

To accept our wrongs and reverse our sin should not take this much discourse

Our Lord, our savior, the holy spirit is struck with melancholy

We as humans, must repent, for this earth, is The Body
