This is a powerful and moving retelling of one of the most meaningful moments in Scripture. I especially appreciate how the repeated question, “Who is it you’re looking for?” invites readers to reflect on their own spiritual journey while emphasizing the profound significance of Mary recognizing the risen Christ. The simplicity of the refrain, “Rabboni, I have seen the Lord,” carries tremendous emotional weight and captures the joy, awe, and hope of the resurrection. Your poem beautifully honors the biblical account while making it feel personal and alive for modern readers. A wonderful reminder that faith often begins with seeking, but it is transformed through encountering the One we seek.
