MOSES AND COMPANY

Lifted from bull rushes
brushes by Nile river

Ten Commandments
from Moses the law giver

life not overrated, it is said
already from mother Jochebed

Esau in a rift by a carob
was not lifted up like Jacob

no promised son of Hagar created
Sarah's kissed one, the other hated

following the star of Bethlehem
a King's hem on an Empire

a man forsaken God
taken with St. John's bread

desired by Satan to the prison
at dawn the dead Son is risen.
