Simon Peter – the “D-sciple”



Simon Peter – the “D-sciple”

Declared undying allegiance.

Defended, nearly decapitating, in the garden.

Deserted, as all the others.

Denied, three times, with curses and oaths.

Disappointed with himself, deeply.

Dropped tears of grief and shame.

Desired to turn back the clock.

Dreamed “could it be?!”

Drawn back to His side!

Dispatched anew with a commission.

Destined to lead the flock.

Driven along, sustained by the hope He inspired.

Drew last breath, upside down, having turned the world upside down!
