MAGPIE...Prompt #199


                                      MADONNA WITH the MILK SOUP/ 1510/ Gerard David


THANK YOU, Tess...at Magpie Tales...


FOR ME

Virgin, make me your child,
feed me from your cup
so that Spirit's light
pours over me.

Fold my hands
into a plea for harmony.
Pray that the constant storm
hums like a zephyr.

Virgin, stay near
all the children
in the garden.

Teach sinner or not,
your healing poetry.

When time slips
into darkness, Mother,
never search for me
with the voice of mourning.

Seek for me only in joy.






                                     MERRY CHRISTMAS / HAPPY HOLIDAYS
