The Most Holy Trinity

The Lover looked down
Upon the Beloved
With a burning intensity of Love.
One last long look.
Then he turned his back.
And the sky turned black.

The Beloved sought in vain
Another look of love.
Yet Love burned
On within his heart.

The Beloved looked down
Upon the beloved
With a burning intensity of Love.
One long unending look.
Then he offered his back.

Love held together
The nails and the tree.
The Beloved willing
Made the sacrifice.
The Lover consumed the offering.
With a burning intensity of Love.
