CHILD AND MADONNA
You are the Butterfly
she is the Rose
with petals uplifted
for your repose.
You are the Nightingale
she is the Air
breathing your music on
souls everywhere.
You are the Grain of Wheat
she is the Field
snowily beautiful.
bearing your yield.
You are the Word of God,
she is His Song.
Help me to sing you both
all my life long.
Sister M Ada CSJ
Magnificat. September 1946
