Mother of Mastery



When I'm lost in the darkness
And my mind is so low key
I see your sweet face on my fading he'art
If I could pray for your softest light
In the bay of my mind then my soul would surely write
And a soft melodic songbird would call out for you
Of the mouths of your followers the whole world through
A mother of goodness and peaceful truth
With a pain in her memory of eternal youth
Infanta your mirror of harmony
In the heavens glorious christ
Ave maria embedded in love
From the depths raise my soul to your God
Devine constancy in the challenges I seek
When curious my path unwinds
Return my souls grace into your fold
and care
To wait for the messages you write
In the lightest of sands written in time
When love returns my prayer
