holy days

[Alan Sondheim]

holy days


jennifer says:
god took us away from ourselves, god brought up back!

in the middle of the night: a flash!
these words, printed on the starry heavens!
what could they mean?
thousands flock to cathedrals and synagogues!
there are hosannas on earth and in heaven!
through god the world has been restored!
humanity is bathed in holy joy!
prayers rise to the vaulted ceilings!
miraculous sounds and lights!
angels flock bringing peace to one and all!
praise to worlds and deities!
praise to the lowest and highest!
hosanna! hosanna!
on these holiest of days: hosanna! hosanna!
