Best Rosary Poems
Rosary of TearsOh that I had wings
like a dove!
for then would I fly away,
and be at rest.
~Psalm 55:6
Lord, I swore not to weep,
yet here in the darkness
that precedes sleep
I find them~
regret, grief, anger, relief~
rivers down my cheek.

Rosary By RayOnce there was a man called Mathew Ray
Seems to commune with nature with no gay
Reciting the rosary reverse
To save the laws of universe
Bloody would anyone for such cause spoil a day!

Cage of the RosaryGravity is a cage, welded by God.
To confine greed and selfish curiosities
restrain this plague called us.
We should be allowed to float about- spread out.
Ingest life from deep space eyes-lonely orbs to colonize.
Come with war or stay in peace.
Follow a rainbow to its end.
Bend time around...

Rosary of TearsIn the moonlight she stood beside his tiny bed,
looking down in tenderness on ringleted head--
Her little boy softly cradled in dream filled sleep.
What dreams were these? Into that land she wished to creep
and join the playtime he enjoyed with skipping sheep.
Around his form she drew...

Rosary Beads On a Gravel RoadOnce, I was trapped behind a dump truck.
It moved like a slug with black lung.
Belched an awful noise.
Tossing gravel like a widower tosses tears...
Every time a piece struck my grill.
I'd wince and duck like a stray dog cowering.
Before a steel toed world.
I said a...

My RosaryA young Priest received an assignment
to a desolate, faraway sight.
The Bishop went for a visit
to make sure everything was alright.
The Bishop advised the young Padre
then asked "How do you like being here?"
The Priest replied "It's been real easy to cope
because of my Rosary...

The Secret of the RosaryEach day I leave my room
And walk on down the hall
'Til I reach the Chapel
With the Cross upon the wall.
As I enter I see Mary
Then Jesus on the Cross
I kneel to pray the rosary
Beginning with Her loss.
Each decade is said with love
Whether spoken fast or...

My Black Rosary With Red Cross and Daily BreadA gaze at uncertainty in your meal time
A wave of poverty in your surroundings
Which one will spoil your hunger?
What will kill your taste buds?
Nothing for sure can eat you
Unless you have eaten something else
A pinch of salt in your sweat
It refuses to give up its...
