I heard a sound coming of the sky.
Like the roar of the ocean, or the roar of thunder.
Truth though is more of the sound of a sigh.
But as we understand more, so the more we wonder.

Mary was such a delicate flower.
Yet of seismic change .
Her very weakness a thing of enormous power.
Beyond anything in our range.

A poverty stricken widow put in two small coins.
This poor widow has put in more than any of them.
Bringing together all the joins.
Although she only earnt a crumb.

So we are not judged by how great we are.
But by what  we give and are.

……

We may be feeble
Very young or very old
But we’re worth so much

See   Apocalypse 14: 1-5  and  Luke 21: 1-4
