Poem reads: Mary be my mother, adopt me as your own. Love and teach and guide me bringing me back home. For I am but a child, needing to be led, Hungry for the precious Word of which I must be fed. So please don't leave me thirsting, nor lost out in the cold. Quench the dryness of my yearning for the son you gently hold. Oh, Mary hold me near, and keep me by your side. You are a Godsend in my life. You are my loving guide. To help me reach the heavens where you shine from like a star, a beacon of His love to your children who stray far.
