1 John 2: 18-21, Ps. 96,
John 1: 1-18

We end in beginning

So, at the ending
we sing of beginning,
the beginning of all
for the sake of the son.
He is the beginning,
the middle and ending.
In his living
all things are done.
And we find there
the word and the woman;
woman foreshadowed
woman that mothered
woman opposing the anti-Christ.
Mary, the mother of God;
Mother of the word;
Mother of each of us;
birthing us into a family,
help us to comprehend.
