Saturday, June 8–Sunday, June 9, 2024 – Our Final Daily Paschal Reader – Singing the Joy of Pascha – R.S. Thomas, from: “Fugue for Ann Griffiths”
Today’s passage – a short section from R.S. Thomas’s poem, “Fugue for Ann Griffiths” will be the last entry for our Daily Paschal Reader.
from: Fugue for Ann Griffiths
by R.S. Thomas
(Welsh Airs, 1987)
There are other pilgrimages
to make beside Jerusalem, Rome;
beside the one into the no-man’s –
land beyond the microscope’s carry.
If you came in winter,
you could find the tree
with your belief still crucified
upon it, that for her at all
times was in blossom, the resurrection
of one that had come seminally
down to raise the deciduous human
body to the condition of his body.
