Some Saints Become Fast Friends...

I was searching for some St. John Bosco quotes when I found this web page with a plethora of Saint's quotes. The particular Saint's quote leaped out at me. Not knowing anything about her, I read the brief summary of her life as recorded on this page, and found a brand new friend. I LOVE her! Pray for me, Saint Margherita, my new blessed friend, and Patron saint of Cortona.

Hold me Jesus, close to Your Heart...

Just found this website. It very much interests me. Transitus - Oblates of the Last Martyrdom

Lovely Lady...Dressed In Blue...

Aaron Neville sings:

Lovely Lady Dressed In Blue

After listening to Aaron sing this lovely rendition of such a lovely song, I was "inspired" to write a poem to Our Lovely Lady. It came to me in just a few minutes this morning, and I've tweaked it just a bit to post it here, now. Mary most holy, pray for us.

Lovely Lady dressed in blue

Will you press me close against your Heart, too

Like you did when you held your little Son

After He would fall
Learning to walk and to run

I need you Lady
Dressed in blue

I need you to pray for me

I need you to hold me so close

When I find myself alone and cold

Never let me be separated from you

For I know you and your Son are One.

Christian Symbols...

Christian art and symbols are intriguing to me. I was wondering about the scallop sea shell among other things, and came across this webpage a while ago. This is a cool site
And here's a nice video to go along with it.
