A Poem Draft

Hodegetria

Such splendor is but sign,
living image of a gesture;
each color and each line
speaks the word of holy lecture.
God's glory in the heights
is come to humble home
and Mary is the light
that guides the one who roams;
this virgin hope displays
the faith of chosen nation,
Mary who points the way
to our Great Salvation!

A girl with simple charms,
in whom it all did start,
holds God within her arms
and points to Heaven's Heart.
