Affection

For many years, I was an island, 
Sailing along the troubled seas; 
Not finding a place to land, 
Longing for love and peace.  

Then she came, and like a compass, 
She gave me a clear direction; 
And the cold heart that I was 
Was sparked by her affection. 

Now, I am lost, no more, 
For she gave me faith and valor; 
The troubled winds on my rugged shore 
Were tamed by her glamour.

*In consonance to the apparition in my vision of the blessed virgin Mary*
