Stories abound,
you have been called
whore,
and saint.
You have been cursed
and disregarded,
pushed to one side
in an effort to
quietly forget
about your existence.
You have been mythologised
and venerated.
..in truth we know
little about you...
But this we do know
you were there
at the cross
and
you saw him
resurrection fresh, and
ran to tell others
of the wonder
you had seen.
Today we celebrate your
your witness,
and pray
that we too might
be so bold!
