“Upper Room, Lowered Heart”Acts 1:8;Acts 2:1This poem reflects the intimate, yet powerful experience of the Upper Room, where the disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost. The sense of legacy, unfinished sentences, and the transformation from fear to purpose mirrors the profound spiritual awakening that took place in that room. The imagery of the bread and wine, symbols of Christ’s body and blood, anchors the poem in the deep connection between the physical and spiritual realms.
