Other PlansA Poem by MaryMary has just informed her family and Joseph about her condition. (not the joyous reaction she might have anticipated)Yesterday, everything was so clean. Celestial greetings offered, Divine Kingdoms promised, A Sacred Plan proposed. Yes, I remember there was a Plan… Was that but a cruel daydream? My womb informs me that my babe is real enough. Today, Mother’s tears are endless, Father’s eyes dismiss me, And oh, my love, my Joseph Recoils from my touch! My innocence drowns in whispers of scandal
Tomorrow, I will leave my home So that other plans can be made. Whose Plan now shall I serve? © 2013 MaryFeatured Review
