Kim very well written and quite an interesting topic. I'd never considered until I read this poem what an emotional and traumatic experience for a young lady to find herself pregnant, knowing she was still virginal.

She went to see Elizabeth, who found herself with child at an old age and who confirmed the words of the angel. God is good. Nonetheless, must not have been easy.

This is beautifully written and overflowing with imagery, Kim -- albeit beyond my ken. :) gw
