Mother Mary
We come to your garden
to remember Him.
At your feet we lay our gratitude
for your grace.
We surrender our earthly burdens
and accept the mystery of your miracle.
Mary, with your image in our hearts,
we possess everlasting calm.
We worry not if or when
our gardens will bloom,
trusting by His hand
all beauty meant for us
will be perfectly timed.
