Does Jesus everwax nostalgic for the tasteof a home-grown fig?Does he talk aboutcampfire nights swapping tall taleswith the disciples?In spring does he longfor the scent of the myrtletrees on the hillside?Can he still feel theweight of a bone-tired bodysinking into bed?Does he ever sitand daydream about the dayswhen he was human?

Lovely poem. I wonder if we will feel that way sometimes when we're in heaven.
In my opinion, I think being in the Glory of the King, there would be nothing to daydream about or long for. Perfection.
I LOVE this. Thank you!
This is very good, especially the last stanza (haiku?).
I think Jesus still experiences those things - through us, the ones He loves so much and knows so well.
That was sweet, Ruth.
XOXO
That is so lovely - thank you.
And the end - it stops my heart for a moment.
Kelly Jene and Sis, you raise interesting points.
Mary Beth, Jan, and Fran, thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Wow, Ruth, I've never thought of this.....if Jesus reminisces about when He was on earth as a human. Thank you for giving me something unique to ponder today.
:) Glad you enjoyed it, Jeannelle.
very very good. Makes me want to try my hand at poetry again.
Love this. There are some sweetnesses of embodied life that I can't believe I won't long for, even in heaven. Thanks for this!
Awesome Ruth. Your talent never ceases to amaze me. I love it!
XOXOXOX
