In stillness before day, Feet tread, afraid Of wakening the dawnSabbath gone. Mourners comethese did not run When hope was dethroned, When nail drove through bone. Black space yawns where door should seal Them out, Him in. One step in, crowding to see, Where is the body? Seeds of hope dislodge despair Suddenly, two men when none were there.
