My Prayer-Poem for the 44th Day of Lent, Maundy Thursday, 1 April 2021

---

The Triduum (Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Holy Saturday) can be observed in three parts: Remember, Stay, Rejoice.


Remember


A kind of Remembering,
more than words, thought and said;
I simply come to Eucharist,
Your life made real in wine and bread.


A kind of Remembering,
by faith becoming what we eat;
Your essence in the bread and wine
and then You stoop to wash my feet.
