She did watch her son upon the cross
this lady of divine intentions
felt her heart throb
matching the pulse of the man
called Jesus, her first born
her baby
the same one who cried when He
fell and blistered His hand
the same one who
asked why friends looked at Him
with amazing eyes
knowing He was destined for
something special.
After the angel came to her
and shared the Immaculate Conception news
she prepared herself for this moment--
her son upon the cross
her son limp after conversing with His father
her son the Saviour of the world.
