So Young
by Anne Linington

So young

Such a young face
Singing her song
Magnifying her Lord
Offering herself
Amazed at God's choice
Humbly obedient
Incarnating Christ

Such young feet
Needing to rest
Dangling tiredly
Journeying purposefully
Fulfilling prophecy
Earnestly awaiting
The King of kings

Such a young hand
Tenderly cradling
Gently reassuring
Mother's love
Warmly welcoming
Her firstborn
Light of the world

Such young eyes
Peering so tenderly
Searching imploringly
Bonding willingly
Mystery manifesting
Fruit of her womb
God Himself

I live in the UK, and attend an evangelical Church of England, where I am training as a Reader, (lay preacher). I support the work of a Christian Healing Centre, and enjoy writing, particularly poetry.
