TODAY IS THE FEAST OF THE VISITATION


When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.         Luke 1:41

  1. There is lovely, uncluttered poem simply called "The Visitation", by poet Malcolm Guite who is also an Anglican priest. I think these lines particularly echo the sentiment portrayed in this picture:
    "From quiet hearts the sudden flame of praise
    And in the womb the quickening kick of grace.
    Two women on the very edge of things
    Unnoticed and unknown to men of power."
