St. Stephen

Whistle thump thud clack
River of red bleeding out
Deaconite death

No scream, no cry ‘help’
Down with kindness and with prayer
Still praying with love



God bless,

St. Stephen

(I won't be updating daily again until Lent, but I'll be updating weekly on Sun, Mon, Wed, Fri, for now)


A grain of sand
Next to this, next to that
Held in the hand
Many grains of sand

A pattern of grains
In lines and in swirls
Colors and stains
Many grains of sand

A pile of stones
Each filled with grains
Red as blood, white as bones
Many grains of sand

A pile of sand
A pile of stones
Each taken by a hand
Many grains of sand

Stephen has trod
Beaten by men
God hears his blood
Many grains of sand

Paul stands by
Holding killers' coats
Hears Stephen's cry
Many grains of sand

A grain of sand
Red colored it lies
Thrown by a hand
Many grains of sand




God bless,
