Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

For thirty years
unknown, undocumented
their lives growing up, into manhood
each with a destiny, each at the River
the Jordan, at their time, ready to fulfill
each carrying a legacy, prophesy
each a part to play, in the revealing
the unfolding of the story
the story of the redeeming,
the healing of the breach, so long ago
a new age dawning, in their meeting
their lives joining again,
the voice crying in the wilderness
and the one who is to come
together, in baptism
beginning a new chapter
in the story of life
