Resurrection Acrostic Poem

The church contains, according to traditions dating back to at least the fourth century, the two holiest sites in Christianity: the site where Jesus of Nazareth was crucified, at a place known as "Calvary" or "Golgotha," and Jesus' empty tomb, where he is said to have been buried and resurrected. This is my version of the resurrection.

Resurrection

Published by Family Friend Poems April 2019 with permission of the Author.

Ridiculed and mocked, nailed to a cross.
Each of his followers mourning his loss.
Set down from on high, placed in a cave.
Unmovable stone in front of his grave.
Roman soldiers guarded the solemn room,
Rejecting attempts to enter the tomb.
Entrance sealed so no one could steal
Christ's body, which had a great appeal.
Then on the third day, Mary could not believe
Inside the cave - no body to grieve.
On Sunday he was seen it was said.
Now God had raised His son from the dead.
