Mary

Village girl
Hears from angel
Tale too large to hold
“You are mother of God”
Or more baffling
“You are highly favored”
Tenacious soul believes
Acquiesces to immortal plan
Births God
Divine in skin
Turning earth on head
No longer do we need angel message
God comes to door instead
In shape of Yeshua
The annunciation for us
Like Mary
Incomprehensible but true
Our life inverted
God names us
“Highly Favored”
