What did Jesus do
The day after Easter?
I mean the Gospels
Aren't so clear on that
Subject
After a busy weekend of
Dying an excruciating
Death: scourged, crucified,
Stabbed in the side for
Blood and water to fall
To mother Earth
And give salvation to
Mankind (all that on
Friday, mind you)
Then, according to
Catholic magesterium,
Harrowing Hell of all
The righteous prior to
His ministry on Earth
All day Saturday
(The reception line on
That one must have taken
Most of the afternoon)
Then rising in
A flash, leaving only
The imprint of His
Humanity on a disputed
Shroud
What did Jesus do
That fine Monday morning?
I prefer to think
He took a vacation
In Tahiti or Samoa
Lounging on the beach
Not worrying about
A single thing
But loving and living
Life eternal and blessing
All the little sea
Birds that flitted
By his beach chair.
Becoming God Almighty,
Afterall, is no easy
Task. He deserved
Some time off.
