I love how the Easter Vigil liturgy specifically calls out bees. In the short version, the Easter candle is referred to as "the work of bees and of your servants' hands," while the long version refers to the flames shared from the Easter candle by the congregation's candles as "fed by melting wax, drawn out by mother bees to build a torch so precious."
"Mother bees," that's adorable.

Vigil
A #poetry threadi.
A portal with a warning line,
this cave’s mouth made of blackened stone.
A journey split from mortal time —
into the black. Cries, echoes, groans.Down I descend to frozen depths.
A poet, partner, pulls me on
past popes and princes who, plaintive, wept
for what to them is neverdawn.🧵👇🏼

Holy Saturday, the quietest day of the church year. A day of mournful emptiness, but also hopeful anticipation.
"Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning." (Ps 30:5)

Holy Saturday, between Good Friday and Easter Sunday, is for reflection and mourning, without Mass, focused on prayer and Jesus in the tomb. The day concludes with the Easter Vigil, starting in darkness and transitioning to light with the Paschal candle, symbolizing hope and resurrection. It invites trust and patience, reminding us that God's work persists in silence. #HolySaturday #EasterVigil #Reflection #Hope #Faith

The resurrection story in Matthew is a swift sunrise. I had forgotten. #EasterVigil

O God, who made this most holy night to shine with the glory of the Lord's resurrection: Stir up in your Church that Spirit of adoption which is given to us in Baptism, that we, being renewed both in body and mind, may worship you in sincerity and truth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
