Mary’s Song of Faith

Even in her doubts
the glances of her neighbors
whispers in the darkness
those in her village
wondering why
how she was pregnant
not knowing what she did
Mary’s song of faith, Magnificat,
speaking of praise, of love
of trusting in God
no matter what, no matter
the chance that she could be stoned
Mary’s song of faith, forever
giving her life to God
