Mary and the Mantis


Hail Mary, full of grace,

I sit atop this wonderful place,

The Lord is with thee!

Looking around at dismissal I see

Blessed are you among women

These parents, teachers and children

And blessed is the fruit

Smiling, laughing and cute.

Of thy womb,

I pray their minds will bloom!

Jesus! Holy Mary, Mother of God,

And as they pass I’ll simply nod,

Pray for us sinners now

With hands together my head will bow,

And at the hour of our death.

Praying for them with my little breath.

Amen.
