Poems to the Virgin Mary

Ah, Great Mother, there
you are, climbing the rose bush
Reddest of roses


She comes to the garden
Dropping dew on the flowers
Dancing like fire
The Morning Star

    The Morning Star is a title given to the Virgin Mary in the Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a.k.a the Litany of Loreto, first approved in 1587 by Pope Sixtus V. It also has associations with ancient goddesses.
