Poetry Analysis Resurrection F.R. Scott

Resurrection Christ in the darkness, dead, His own disaster hid. His hope for man, too soon Sealed with the outer stone. This heaven was at hand, Men saw the promised land, Yet swiftly, with a nail Made fast the earlier rule. All saviors ever to be Share this dark tragedy; The vision beyond reach Becomes the grave of each. And that of him which rose Is our own power to choose Forever, from defeat, Kingdoms more splendid yet. Play Easter to this grave No Christ can ever leave. It is one man has fallen, It is ourselves have risen.
