The marriage poem “Testimony” is from the new collection “Mary in Thought”
Testimony
Testament of faith
with due steadfastness
open and transparent
more than special
Few come from
for their faith
There is reticence
to tell
What feels important
runs over
upon saying
that belief
a lot
free from
Anxiety and fear
to say
and to write
About my faith
What others think
it doesn't affect me
Many thanks, Maria
worship and adore
belongs with me
as the laying out
of a testimony
