Feast of the Assumption

Today is the Feast of the Assumption. In honor of our Blessed Mother I have composed a humble poem. I also hope that it is somewhat explanatory for our non-Catholic brothers and sisters who are unsure about our relationship to Mary. For those Catholics (and other Christians devoted to Mary) I hope it inspires you and helps you celebrate this feast.

Come to His Mother

How to approach this Love-

So pure it terrifies me!

Perhaps I will go it It’s mother.

The most perfect woman;

Written into His passionate

Love story with man.

The Light reflecting off her begins

To melt my heart.

I hold her hand… and trembling,

I ask her to introduce me to the Word.

Being full of grace,

She does not fear entering

Into His Glorious Presence.

Comforting me,

Guiding me,

Proud of me;

She places me in the arms of her Son.
