Christmas Eve!
A poem of mine--"Incarnation"--from two years ago:
This is the emptying.
The release of heaven.
The descent
into the warmth
of a young girl's womb.
Vitally yoked
to her heartbeat and life.
Sharing the scandal
and embarrassment of flesh.
A covenant of love
sealed in ligament and bone.
Glory
to God in the Highest.
Glory
here in straw and blood.
Thank you for this. It is wonderful :)
Merry Christmas!
A wonderful poem! It reminds me to see "the glory in the straw and blood" of each new day. Thank you.
I kept looking for a "like" button. LOL! Great poem!
Hey, just found this blog out and really enjoy it! Thank you for the poem, added this blog to my reading list! :)
Would appreciate any pointers/support for a blog I wrote about the incarnation,
