Three men come to my husband\u2019s tent<\/span><\/p>\n

Three days after his circumcision.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis time next year Sarah will bear you a son,\u201d one says.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overhearing him, I laugh.<\/span><\/p>\n

I prepare food for our guests and knead dough \u2013<\/span><\/p>\n

Me – conceive at ninety?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

I slap round, flat bread on oven\u2019s walls –<\/span><\/p>\n

Shake my head in disbelief,<\/span><\/p>\n

Oversee cooking of calf in well-aged wine –<\/span><\/p>\n

How can my husband, even older than I,<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Give me a son?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

I stoop over the open fire,<\/span><\/p>\n

Chuckle softly, amused at the notion,<\/span><\/p>\n

And turn to churn butter in barrel.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis time next year…\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Like a cedar in the desert \u2013<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

I laugh.<\/span><\/p>\n
