Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene

Nothing unimportant
all that was written
power in that moment
the first of his resurrection
Mary in the garden
waiting in anguish
needing to see Jesus
rewarded that day

Jesus appears to Mary Magdalene
before any others
not the disciples
who fled and ran away
she who was humble
forgiven and redeemed
the daughter of Eve
the first to see Jesus
