ANNUNCIATION
 MOMENTS
        
        Annunciation moments ....

        Some wonderful, so marvelous to hear:
                       a pregnancy, a birth, new life,
                       a marriage, new wine, a new beginning.

        Some terrifying, so devastating to hear:
               a death in the family, a loss of faith,
               a divorce, crushed grapes,
                       young children involved.

        Some unsure, unknown, unclear to hear:
               yet Mary said, “Yes, be it done to me
                       according to your word;”
               and Jesus said, “Father, into your hands
                       I give my spirit.”
