The Sorrowful Mother, Heart to Heart

O Mary, I reflect on your life with Jesus 
with love and reverence...
At the Annunciation, you said "yes"...
 At the Nativity,
when you nestled Him at your breast...
I love to meditate on all 
you must have taught Him...
At the Wedding Feast at Cana, 
you called Him forth
to His first miracle
and into His public ministry...

How was I to know when I asked you 
to unite my heart with yours...
You would show me 
the sword that pierced your Immaculate Heart...
as they Crucified your Son 
and placed Him back in your hands...
you would ask me 
to place mine there too?

In Loving Memory of
