Parable

On the coast path

surrounded by rock and sand.

The sinking sun casts

the shadow of a house onto the hard, red rock.

And I am reminded of another house, another rock,

far away in place and time,

And of another Son, telling stories,

projecting images of houses, rock and sand

For those whose ears are wise enough

to see and understand.
