Unthinkable
The angelic body bowed low
in adoration
Before the woman soon-to-be-
with child.
"Blessed," he called her.
"Why?" she asked.
"Chosen," was his answer.
He waited. She wondered.
"How? Not now," she said.
"God changes time," said
the messenger.
"A son but no husband?
A mother before
being a
wife?"
"Impossible!" she pro-
tested.
"Exactly," he smiled.
