Perhaps not everyone could see.
Some who saw refused to follow.
Those who did their lives, once hollow,
were all transformed majestically.
A tiny light far off may be
a beam from an enormous star.
The blood once flowing left a scar.
Did all that happen long ago?
We see the scar and starlit show.
One word confirms just who we are.

I found it on YouTube and watched “The Shepherd” episode. It was very well done. Thank you for letting me know. The shepherd found the spotless lamb.

Thank you, Jenna! I am glad you like that poem. I enjoyed yours remembering your former students. It reminded me of teaching I did as a grad student long ago.
