april songs:  journey of life 5

april song 05—infantile

thus the specimental blueprint
nurtured by umbilicus
comes to terms with awesome foot-sprint
whose Seed shall deliver us.

infantile—complete but helpless
—in the milk of human care.
shall He bloom blood-red and selfless,
with whose love none can compare?

is the crown of thorns too prickly
for the innocent of birth?
does the Cross bring death too quickly
to redeem a fallen earth?

could the seed of every woman
save the seed of every man,
fate would fashion an in lieu plan
that the cosmos could not span.

but the word that's kindly spoken
of full healing is a token.
