There are no barren years

Beulah M. Roegge

Surely, Elizabeth's prayers
Prepared for John,
Sara's for Isaac,
The Shunammite's for her son.

And Mary,
Virgin-mother,
Perceived God's love for all the world,
Conceived His Son without desiring.

O childless of today—
There are no barren years.
All earth's children are as yours
When you pray.

Beulah M. Roegge
