Gabriel, said God
I have another
message that needs sent.
Go to the town of
Nazareth, and there
you’ll find a most
remarkable young girl,
exceptional among her
peers.
She never fails to do
exactly as she ought,
helps out her mother
without thought
of playing with the
other girls;
she never pulls her
sister’s hair,
or hides her brother’s
much-loved toy.
She sits apart and
contemplates such worthy things.
In short, most
tiresome.
Though, as I said,
remarkable enough,
you’ll have no doubt
you’ve found the girl.
And when you do,
you want next door.
Mary, a girl you
would not pick out in a crowd,
a bubbling brook
of hopes and fears
of tears and laughter
of wide-eyed dreams
and bright-eyed mischief;
in short, like any
other.
If you can catch her
eye, then let her know that she is chosen.
