The Visitation














Visiting a favorite cousin. 
Who would have guessed- 
Elizabeth bearing a child, 
after all these years. 
Mary too carrying 
a great Secret.
Though what to say-
an angel in the kitchen? 

Then telling Joseph, 
and that he understood-
noble carpenter. 

And now the stirring, 
the child suddenly exuberant 
inside Elizabeth, 
excited as she is 
to have Mary in the house.

How blessed those who believe
when God promises.
