A to Z Advent poetry challenge - Q

 


In the quiet of this moment

I close my eyes and sense

The Queen of Heaven.

Mary, the mother of Jesus

Stands before me

With her baby in her arms

Offering him up

For me to hold

I sense the weight 

Of his little body

As I carry him

In safety

As he trusts me to

As babies do

I sense her motherly pride.

This little infant

Planted in her womb

By her acquiescence

Will elevate her to heights

Her humbleness

Could never imagine
