Meeting God

(Always Beyond Defeat cycle #2)

~

Two women greet

Their bodies carry suns

~

Each will meet

God

~

In different forms

Of sacrifice and joy

~

And yet for now

They can rejoice

~

Each will bring to birth

A blessed boy.

This is the next in a cycle of poems inspired by scenes from the life of Christ depicted in the Lady Chapel at Hereford Cathedral. Previous poems appear under today’s window image…

1.

Spirit flies

Into her womb

On a ray

Of light

And angel says

All will be right

Even blessing

Beyond the tomb.
