Lyrics of a song for Good Friday.
Before the Cross Daughters of Jerusalem, Do not mourn or weep again, Jesus said as he bore the cross, A victory that seemed a loss. No, do not weep, do not cry, They do this when the tree is green, What will they do when the tree is dry? Barefoot children in the lane, Shelter from the pelting rain, And when the rose breaks through the ice, You will sing in paradise. No, do not weep, do not cry, They do this when the tree is green, What will they do when the tree is dry? Silent soldiers on the hill, Waiting for the sign to kill, One day your captives will be free, Sailing on a sunlit sea. No, do not weep, do not cry, They do this when the tree is green, What will they do when the tree is dry? �

She Intrigues Me, Revelations Of Love by Jon Willey

If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
