Advent for Amateurs - Poems of Hope, Part 3

Mary and Elizabeth greeted each other, 
Both astounded to soon be mothers, 
And at the greeting of Mary in the room, 
Elizabeth's baby leapt in her womb. 

Elizabeth spoke, her voice like laughter, 
"Am I so blessed to see the mother of my Master?
As your voice sounded, my own baby leapt, 
And you can be sure God's word will be kept. 
And in believing God, your faith will afford,  
All of the promises made by the Lord."

--Luke 1:39-45
