Thank you, dear Lady! By Kai-Anne Clews

Oh my Lady of the Rosary, Your children love you so, We are your children, For our Lord gave us, you, As our Mother, long ago. From the very cross He spoke, To the Disciple, and so, making us all one: He said “Behold your mother.” And “Dear woman, here is your son.” Oh Mary, how I love you, Help me pray my Rosary… Help me celebrate anew, This special day, your anniversary; With the little shepherd children so true. On the side of the Hill, In 1917, on the 13th day, Appearing to them each month, Ending in October, and starting in May. So since the 13th of May, I’ve composed poems for you, Each month, and this is the second to last… I shall end this sequence On my birthday; for you! For you and our Lord are unsurpassed! Pray for us my Lady, Please intercede for us, With the Father and with the Son – For you are chosen from all people, To be this special one… My Lady, My Queen, I thank you, On behalf of the whole human race, And I pray we all could delight then, To behold thee; the first daughter of Grace.
