That was beautiful. I don't know why; I've always been drawn to Luke's Gospel among the others. The way he puts things just gets to me. This really captured it: being able to speak with Mary, and hear all that... wow.
Beautiful. Thank you for this. Thank you also for the shout-out at the top! Really deepens the whole experience of the gospel to remember the countless hours of work and interviews and writing that Luke took to make sure he got it all exactly right. Hearing the story from Mary after the fact must have been as you say--grief mingled with glory. What a poem! Thank you!
What a lovely post in honor of the beloved Gospel writer! Especially your poem's nod to "But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart." One of my favorite all-time verses; I both relate to it as a person of private temperament and need it as a reminder when my ebullient, mouthy side wants to blab to no good purpose. We named our son Luke after this saint.
