She reached another milestone
another hurdle cleared
preparing herself for the next step
another moment of success
leading to the calling she feels
the affirmed calling
to ministry
She was admitted, accepted
called to get the good news
of admission to Seminary
to where the sandals, to prepare
to be the hands and feet, and voice,
of the master,
to begin the more formal steps
to go where others have led
learning with new insights
the ancient message
new voice, get ready to sing
drinking in the word
now that you have passed
another milestone
