The Fullness of Time

 "But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman." ~Galatians 4:4

She was
swollen with hope
ripe with Love
abundant with grace
saturated with trust
complete with life
full of time
His time


His eternal
never-ending
always there
abiding, enduring, everlasting 
past, present and future
timeless time


He entered
through Her
for us
and we, too, 
are forever timeless
through His grace and with her yes
we exist
in the fullness of time

    1. Dear Patricia,

      Thank you so much for the award and the kind words! It has definitely been cold in Wisconsin, but we usually pride ourselves on being pretty tough. This year, though, I'm not sure that we're tough anymore. The kids had four days off school because of the cold! We're slacking!

  7. Hi Anne,
    I love all your poetry but this one might just be my favorite! Your words about Mother Mary - so beautiful it gave me shivers when I read them.
