A tale that is told centuries over.
A tale that is listened to.
A tale that stuns and a tale that is ignored.
An epic.
A child.
A child born of a Virgin. A supreme humbled.
A child raised in the backwaters. A Messiah raised, for glory, in rags. Despised by the world.
A young man, wiser than Solomon, respected his elders.
A young man, made for kingship, grown a carpenter.
A man. A warrior. Noble and mighty. Descended from kings. A God-King.
Twelve men. Twelve soldiers. Twelve seeds to scatter.
To scatter. To plant. To send down roots. To send up shoots.
To train. To shape. To build culture.
A tree. Made into a symbol. A symbol of punishment.
A shameful punishment.
A sinless lamb. A lion, roaring in righteousness. Nailed.
Love torn. Love shunned. Love discarded.
Love.
Nailed to a Cross.
Love. Dead.
Love risen.
Death made dead.
Life restored.
Light shining.
A Baby, young Man, a Man, a God-King. Risen.
