MOTIF OF MARY



MOTIF OF  MARY

                                    The melody of day repeats a patterned plea:
Maria!
                                    as a bird in air wheels, soars and veers-
Maria!
                                    in each upsweep of hours beats the winged response-
Maria!
                                    as a candle tip rears, falters, flares-
                                                                        Maria!
                                    even at night her name returns-
                                                                        Maria!
                                    in a song of light, as a flame in flight-
                                                                        Maria!
