Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Feeling his touch
the roughness of his hands
the scars from the nails
where he was crucified
the touch of his love
the warmth of his caress
feeling the shepherd’s hands
resting on my head

With His Calloused Hands

Not a member of the elite
never sitting, studying in the Temple
working, with his calloused hands
the nets, the water, this was his life

Beginning the church, this foundation
ordinary men, laity, common
spreading the word
the truth of God’s love
to the ends of the earth
