“Ichthys” by Isara Daengruan
the lamb born to die
in his lion of manhood
will save souls of sheep
turn the snake to its tail
bless all who come to the
ichthys the sign of the fish
grant the access to grace
of an immortal peace
through spirit of the dove
************************
“Why a lamb in his passion? Because he underwent death without being guilty of any iniquity. Why a lion in his passion? Because in being slain, he slew death. Why a lamb in his resurrection? Because his innocence is everlasting. Why a lion in his resurrection? Because everlasting also is his might.” – St Augustine
From my book Onionskin
