A moment

This was easier to find than I'd feared.
It is a poem about a moment I was privileged to witness.

Madonna
Her face glowed
Madonna and Child—the love of a miracle

For that child, crucifixion
For hers, who knows?

Months here, advances and set backs
Going home to a life of doctor’s visits

T-ball and drugs
Or, maybe, not at all

But none of that is hers right now
I know, I think she might

But for right now
No caveats, no caution, no fear

Just full born love

Thank you for commenting on my blog.

I have a guess as to who you are, but I'm not sure. My guess is that if you are in fact part of my universe you figured out who I am pretty quickly.

I like your writing. I will stop by again.
