two women
matron and maiden
pregnant with divinity
carry sons
chosen to prepare a way
and establish a kingdom
carry sons
destined to baptize and to heal
and to die (one will rise)
but for today
matron and maiden
pregnant with divinity
delight in figs and tea
and weave soft blankets
and giggle with baby-time anticipation

this is my take on how it might have gone down for Mary and Elisabeth. Mary being sent off to "help" her aged cousin with her pregnancy, because they did not know what else to do with her, and also to save her from possible stoning. But I think that Elisabeth was the only one who really understood this young maiden.
