“I see His blood upon the rose...”
I see his blood upon the rose,And in the stars the glory of His eyes;His body gleams amid eternal snows,His tears fall from the skies.I see his face in every flower;The thunder and the singing of the birdsAre but his voice - and, carven by His power;Rocks are His written words.All pathways by His feet are worn;His strong heart stirs the ever beating seaHis crown of thorns is twined with every thorn.His cross is every tree.- Collector
