 The Message in the Glass by Raymond A. Foss 
						She sat beside me in the chapel this morningas her momma began to preach
 we were in the back, to avoid
 distracting others, with her fidgeting;
 but for a moment, she was focused
 on the message in the glass
 “That’s Jesus!” she exclaimed
 for me to hear, smile and nod
 yes, the panes of the stained glass
 to my left were the story of Jesus,
 His birth, Baptism, Ministry,
 His death and Resurrection
 She saw it clearly, even at five years old
 in a moment of sharing, in the back of
 the chapel this Sunday morning
