My Visit With Mary

you appeared to me 
in the middle of the woods 
i was like a child in the wilderness 
as with david I began kneeling 
yellow flowers had begun
blooming abruptly before me 
they seemed to be surrounded us
wooden stumps gathered
 
like thee apostles i shivered 
while the scent of pink roses were abundant
and presently clear with a distant aroma 
as I tremmored the bright light
seemed to be covering your image 
you reached out your hands to me 
as the trees also began kneeling 
weeping profoundly your voice whispered 

do not be afraid for he is with you 
the ground beneath my feet began opening 
descending into the earth as thunder 
raced across  sunlight as night scurried under day 
the mountains and hills began to sway 
crumbling into thee ocean and the awaiting seas 
as the rivers were drawn closely together forming 
one stream joining throughout the world connecting 

only in Jordan as large stones were turned into soft gravel 
leading a path to only Jesus as the lord cried out 
there should be goodness in truth I covered my eyes
the lord replied behold women remove 
your hands from your face for you are women 
you are child no more sighing mother 
no more crying woman and needing help 
because no one noticed when Jesus welpt
