Who are you?

Who are you?
We did not know
your face
so young
so new.
your eyes
do not meet
ours,
they are looking
afar:
eyes contemplating
Mystery.
your lips
are not smiling
but they seem
to be about
to utter
the eternal Word
that from silence
is born .
Who are you?
A presence
A Sign
Our sweet sister.

Prayer
