Mother Mary

looking out upon this lake,
I stare and ponder its stillness.
world's troubles seem to fade,
as Mother Mary is at my shoulder.

standing high above the wildflowers,
as people rant and rave of right and wrong.
Mother Mary shows her presence,
For those who care to seek.

greed and anger are not in nature,
only human weakness at its peak..
Mother Mary shows her presence,
open your eyes upon this lake.

look in your heart and feel what's right,
we are here not for our own fight.
Mother Mary shows her presence,
be good to others and peace will heal.

to all of those tonight that hate,
I only ask you look upon this lake.
Mother Mary shows her presence,
embrace her love and nature in your heart, for peace.
