SUNFLOWERS
ALONG EMMAUS ROAD
Israel
Pilgrimage—1986
Big,
bodacious sunflowers
live up to
their name
sun-shining
a million
dazzling
petal spires at us
along
Emmaus Road
It is
fitting
because I
am ablaze
with
Jesus-joy
to be here
as I think
about my newly
Resurrected
Lord, vanishing
at the very
breaking
of the
bread
astonishing the disciples
who sat
with Him
at table
Those
utterly bewildered disciples
whose
hearts thumped
and blazed
with glory
fire
as He
walked with them
as He
explained to them
the Holy
Scriptures
2000 years
ago
somewhere
along this
very road
