Premium Member Sunday, He Lives
Early in the morning Before the sun dawned, Women crept to the garden Asking how to open the tomb, How to see in the gloom What do we say to the guards? The earth shook! Tremors rocked the city walls, Leaves fell like rain, And the guards ran and hid; At the tomb, these...

Premium Member Shadow and Nails
In darkest days, when shadows blended with the earth, And nails hung humanity in its blood-stained hands, While the priests looked on and smiled politely They stole the heart of everyone who saw truth In God’s own Son, yet left the gate wide open for death, And so, we enter the darkest hours, as life...

Premium Member The Resurrection
The first day of the week, while it was still dark She visited the tomb with a heavy heart. How it did occur she just couldn’t say But the stone was rolled away! Alleluia! He is risen! Alleluia! We are saved! Alleluia! He is risen! Alleluia! He has left the grave! Then, John and Peter ran so that they might see. They...

He Rose on the Third Day
(Easter Resurrection Song) He rose on the third day, the stone rolled away, The darkness was shattered by dawn’s golden ray. The grave could not hold Him, the veil torn in two, The promise of heaven made faithful and true. He walked out in glory, His hands marked with grace, The wounds that redeemed us, love’s radiant trace. The angels rejoiced, and...

A Love Hung Quiet
The hill was bare, the sky undone, The veil was torn without a sound. Red streaked the wood, the earth stood still, And love hung quiet, pierced and crowned. But dawn returned in linen white, A folded cloth, an open stone. No trumpet called, just wind and light, And grace that walked the garden home. Now light outlives the longest night, And hope is...

Triumph Over Death
He came for humanity's sake, Preaching love, not disunity's ache. A pillar strong, a tower high, He healed the oppressed, the devil's sigh. Declared his fate, arrest, and death, Yet on the third day, he'd find new breath. Conquering death, the world's despair, He arose, putting shame to crafty snare. No need for evidence to quell my doubt, My conviction stands, unwavering without. Fully persuaded,...

Oh Mary, blessed art thou among women. What did your eyes see? And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favor with God. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, And bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: And the...

Premium Member Into the Light of Day
Lying in the dark Three days all alone. Seems to me my heart Is cold and hard as stone. Don’t know if you’re coming Or you’re going your own way. Waiting for your gentle word To bring me back into the light of day. Silence all around me Still, I’m not concerned. Soon you will have found me And bid me to return. Everyone is listening To all...

Premium Member Resurrection Time
When time springs forward, and light prolongs the day When insects like bees, mosquitoes, and wasps, gallop into Spring, armed with weapons to annoy and sting When birds fly North, and bears awake to hunt When the chilly winds of Winter grow quiet, And the Spring Season shouts for joy When darkness fades for fear of the light When hidden shadows are...

Ashes of Paradox
Monstrous faith, Blasphemous state, Cursed to a Lazarous fate. Phoenix ashes tracing a Brownian route, Genie dances with an ambient view. Casting spells where destiny brews, Crafting cells where reason skews. Factual sprawls as time distorts, Actual flaws that time contorts. A paradox script the cosmos writes, A Faraday cage,our fate locked tight....

Resurrection
Take off the hypnotic wings to the flying frequencies of unknown emptiness where the violated sky lives The upstairs' shelves full of fume where the withered petals create the canvas of fairy tales The whispered heart to the thunderous silence in the womb where the pains of love resurrect the fetus of god. ©Mahtab Bangalee/Feb'25 ...

Premium Member Gethsemane
Gethsemane, And sweat like blood. Disciples quite Misunderstood. Golgotha's cross, Forsaken cry, Misunderstood. Why does he die? In borrowed grave, Cold death entombed. Misunderstood — Disciples' gloom. Alive again! Still disbelieved, Misunderstood By hearts deceived. Misunderstood Today? By you? Know you not what He came to do? See Matthew chapter 26 and Mark chapter 14 ...

Echoes of a Fallen Queen
Awake, O Mother, awake! Your glory, an echo of a bygone prime. Your once-mighty bow, now broken lies, A fragile stick, bereft of might. A glorious Queen, who begot all, Fades away, like autumn's fall. Ravaged by those her womb helped bore, Betrayed by those she trusted most. They claimed you died of lack, Yet feasted at your wake. As they entombed you, tears fell...
