Mary notices the divine
and celebrates
we notice what's missing
without recognizing that we too are longing
we hunger, with Mary,
not for what we want, but
for the Word of God to be spoken into our deepest selves
though we don't recognize
God already fills our emptiness
Coaxing from us, with Her
Let It Be With Me ...
trying to pay attention to what's going on in the world around me
Nice poem. Have you ever read Steven James' The Secret?
