Mary came while it was dark
but
You weren't there
how early, Lord, did You leave the tomb?
at three?
maybe two?
how early?
one?
poised at the edge of Heaven
was the Father eager
for the last stroke of midnight to resound?
before its echo faded
before the third day exhaled one breath
did He say to You
come home,
Son?
why not?
why wait?
Your work was done
Abba loved You too much to leave You there
one moment
longer
