All of Us


by Pavel Chichikov

I sat in a courtroom –

A youth accused was seated there

And so was the prosecutor

Then Mary came to the tomb

And there were angels there

But no prosecutor

For the one who had condemned

Was still asleep

As the garden awoke

Whom do you seek, they said

For the tomb is empty

And she turned away

And in that turning

She saw One who was alive

And it was He

And as she worshiped Him

But did not touch His flesh

I looked within the tomb

And there was the courtroom

And the youth

And all of us
