The Lamb and
Lion Lunes*
Try opening Isaiah:
a lamb, meek and dumb
led to slaughter.
The royal lions
blocked up their mouths and
Daniel was spared.
Find the key
further in the Books*
not in nature.
Victory at last!
The Lamb becomes the Lion
of Judah's tribe.
*Lune (French fo0r "moon") invented by Robert Kelly in the
1960's
**The Greek word for 'Bible' (Biblia) is actually a plural.

Chunghoo, MY
lion and lamb
lion when it roars
reminds me of the power
of god that resonates
through the ages
lamb when it bleats
reminds me of the soft spot
of god for the human race
there on the cross
his sacrifice for us
lion when it roars
reminds me of the power
behind its huge frame
lamb when it bleats
reminds me of how
kindliness and innocence
can sometimes melt even a lion's heart
John
Daleiden
Haiku lion
and lamb
lie down beside each other—
the stuff of dreams
