A Virgin a Day: Day Twelve
I think that Mother Mary
as an older woman
was an activist for justice
a crusader for peace
didn't take no for an answer
when only a yes would do
ate spoons full of pomegranate seeds
danced in the moonlight
wove flowers in her hair
and slathered honey into wounds
she was a healer
midwife
a teacher
and
not altogether tame
she was a woman
with fire in her belly.
A woman for all times.
A woman for our time.

She was,
she is
all things,
mysterious
and magical
and true.
This is another beauty, Meri.
Love♥
