more than spring’s bitter herbs

Wonderful haiku written on what we call ‘Goede Vrijdag’ (Good Friday) on the Last Supper of the Lord. Wonderfully done, such a different take on this prompt. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us.

Spring’s bitter herbs and dandelion wine perhaps?
Sounds like a high old time in the Master’s house!

A blossom, perhaps, to take away the sharp edge of bitterness?

    Are you suggesting that it was really dandelion wine that was served at the Last Supper? 🙂

      That does sound sort of sacrilegious when you put it that way. �I was being a bit obscure, I guess. �Although I know grapes were the source of wine at the Last Supper, I was making a reference to the fact that dandelion is considered a purifying herb and, since the prompt WAS dandelion, I went with my comment, which seems a bit flippant in retrospect. The Master served something purifying all right, but it wasn’t dandelion wine. 🙂 Thank you for reading my poems and commenting. You always challenge me to clearer thinking and writing!.
