a series of reflections based on this online stations of the cross experience.
In the commentary on this station, the narrator talks about the prophecy Mary receives from Simeon about her heart being broken as she watches Jesus approach his death. The question the narrator asks is, “Has your heart been broken this year? Has anyone in your life caused you pain? Give this pain to Jesus to carry the cross.”
Here’s an attempt at a few Haiku poems that speaks to this in my life:
Beloved Sisters
Shared journeys take different turns
Will we join back up?
Seasons of silence
An unexpected phone call
Old wounds reopened
Photos of mem’ries
All those laughs and silly smiles
Now feels out of date
