Luke 1:5–41

Elizabeth became my voice when all

My praise was silence, doubtful words by angel

Presence stopped in mercy, my faith too small

For careless acquiescence to the marvel

He announced. In silence I became a sign

Of grace Elizabeth conceived. Her touch

Brought me alive to wordless bliss, divine

Intention whole in broken love such

As we know in cruel diminished age.

Joy swollen, she hid herself. God’s silence

Binding me, I lived, a walking suffrage,

Before the coming incandescence.

When Mary came, our Joy leapt up included

To greet the one in virgin womb secluded.
