This collection of
reflective poems explore Christ’s birth narrative is a little gem.
Rosemary’s words
are paired with illustrations by Kelsey Johnston – the same
powerful simplicity.
Two of the poems…
If
If
she’s right
we’re found
If
God lit
the flame
that burned
then light
has won
and God
has come.
If
she’s right
then God
has come.
Genealogy I
Do we prefer not to
read these lines?
The repetitive sons
of,
names
unpronounceable,
yet they give
location, connection.
We need to go back,
go back.
The birth was not
random. The Story
didn’t start with
the baby. Lineage, yes,
a family tree, but
also whispered about
before and before;
foretold. A prophecy.
