The Son came to the earth and approached Saint John
two millennia ago, but it seems like now.
God the Father announced He is His sole son
and the Ghost like a Dove showed the three in one.
We live that great event and recall that scene
and we know that the Lord is modest and meek.
He came from His high sky to a man like us
and asked him to baptise the God of all men.
Nothing can match the sight when Who raised the dead
came to John to ask him to give Him that rite.
When the Lord showed Himself as a humble man,
He gave proof that He is the Lord of the sky.
He made us, and He loves all the people all.
That is why He came here to save whom He loves.
All of us are the sheep of the Good Shepherd;
He cares for all of us as we are His herd.

Your poem reads more poignantly on a Sunday we in church recall the Baptism of Christ by John.
