Rhyme Scheme: ABC DEDE FGFH II

celebrations what a starA
announced a birth and then a chance to foldB
a year away pull one fresh from the drawerC
-
if not clean well unworn in just a fewD
months arrives the ice hot day of the deadE
come back to life time then to ask how newD
and re beginnings differ mary bledE
-
for the december miracle as someF
one must did you imagine sacrificeG
as you called the crips to life did they comeF
those youngbloods at the crackling of your voiceH
-
like lazarus to christ vigilant nightI
on the road to san quentin candlelightI
