mornings with mary untie the strong woman

Virgin de Guadalupe

george yepes

 

Mi Guadalupe is a girl gang leader in Heaven.

She is unlike the pale blue serene woman.

She is serene, yes, like a great ocean is serene.

She is obedient, yes, like the sunrise

is obedient to the horizon line.

She is sweet yes,

Like a huge forest of sweet maple trees.

She has a great heart, vast holiness,

and like any girl gang leader ought,

substantial hips.

Her lap is big enough 

to hold every last one of us.

Her embrace

can hold us,

All...

and with such Immaculate Love.

Aymen

Oh Guadalupe is a gangstar. Sitting beside you today on her ample lap sharing forever love.

What a very unusual Mary and a post designed to make us all think.
"Her lap can hold us all" --a beautiful image.

A wonderful Mary morning to you Rebecca. I just love this book by Clarissa Pinkola Estes!

It's paintings like these

that make me want to do better.

I couldn't make the date with Mary this Monday, was off looking after my own little Connie-Cub, a new thing for me, now mum is back at work, only once in a while though!

I so love your strong Mary with large child bearing hips, large enough for all the love in the world....x

BTW Butterfly ready!

Rebecca, I was just completely enthralled by the poem of girl gang Mary. Thanks so much for sharing it here.
