The Immaculate Conception
Today is the feast of The Immaculate Conception---the day we
officially
Honor Mary for giving birth to Jesus. For saying yes to God when
All others would have said no
As far as I know, there are no other virgin births. But I would
Like to pay tribute to all those women who have spent their
life
Devoted to their family, devoted to their man, and devoted
to
Their children.
And to all those women who have tried.
Follow with the poem “Mary”

“Mary”
Mary was a woman
Of pure grace
She said yes
When all others
Would have said no
She had
The faith in God
To say yes
When all others
Would have said no
Today--Mary-- on your birthday ( feast day )
We thank you
For your faith
We thank you
For your pure grace
And most of all
We thank you
For saying yes
When all others
Would have said no
Robert P. Wallman
