A New Kind of Canticle

“Alleluia!”

I heard it, stopped, and turned around.

Damned if it wasn’t the amaryllis,
Lined up in the window box,
Their red-striped throats open,

Praising the Lord.

(by Margaret Minis; I found this while perusing an EFM brochure, and it reminded me of something Will Campbell would write)
