Birth

This day
   as I reach beyond the busyness and buying
I find
   God's hand
holding us 
   in all we do

Right there
   providing each breath
allowing us the comfort of our distractions
   ever listening to our thoughts
Being as the porous sand
   absorbing our doing and running around

Waiting 
   silently, with patient expectancy,
for our hand
   to reach
toward
   Her

To provide 
   the ingredient
of allowing the alchemy 
   of the birth of Christ
within.

Mary
