The Virgin Birth


The Virgin Birth

This astonishing claim finds resistance
for many in this Christmas season..
Rationality seems abandoned and yet
an intense wish only to believe
to somehow fall into a truth..
The verses and learned comments
do not seem to cooperate as translations
shout error and insert their findings
of a simple young woman..
So we try to find new paths for relief
and we ponder the simple word ponder..
She ponders how immersed seem her
pain and perplexity in a dawning
and welcoming grace...
