I went to see where Jesus <br />once touched the earth <br />but the Catholics <br />had got there before me <br />and obscured His footprints <br />with arches, buttresses, <br />gold and incense. <br /> <br />I went to see where Jesus once touched the earth. <br />I couldn't see for <br />concrete and collection boxes, <br />for postcards and guide books. <br /> <br />So I looked further down. <br />I looked to the ground. <br />But the ground was thirty feet <br />higher than back in A.D.3. <br />This is not where Jesus walked. <br /> <br />I looked down, down to my feet, <br />my legs,arms,chest. <br />I looked down to where Jesus <br />touches the earth.<br /><br />Steve Turner<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/where-jesus-touched-the-earth/
