The Flower Of Creation.



In the field of creation a
Flower permanently grows
For its planter was and is
The gardener of life.
As part of his gardening
Plan the gardener knew
That a flower of love
Would be required.

A flower whose essence
Arose from love and whose
 Love arose from the source
Of love. Yes, Mary, was seeded
And planted centuries ago! Her
Deed being the conception
Of the Saviour of all.

And from the garden of love
Mary bloomed and produced
The fruit of love and the
Salvation of our species.
Thus, a flower beyond
Description gave birth to the
Source of our salvation who was
Then born in Bethlehem.

A flower to be the mother of us
All and whose “Yes” to Gabriel
Was immortalised by the gardener
Of all. So, come, let us hail, Mary,
Of the garden of love, the Flower
Of creation and of our
Eternal salvation.
