Mary a girl,
Mary at home,
Mary with her life before her.

Rosanna a girl,
Rosanna at home,
Rosanna with her life before her.

Mary listening to her call,
Mary pondering these things,
Mary remaining faithful and following the various directions given her.

Rosanna listening to her call,
Rosanna pondering these things,
Rosanna remaining faithful and following the various directions given her.

Mary a woman,
Mary in the world,
Mary living a life not making a deal for eternal life,
just simply following what she felt was right,
and this happened to be what she felt God had called her to do.
How amazing to life a life like that and it still be reflected upon!

Rosanna a woman,
Rosanna in the world,
Rosanna living a life not making a deal for eternal life,
just simply following what she feels is right,
and this happens to be what she feels God has called her to do.
How amazing to live a life like that even if it is a delusion.

Mary a lady,
Able to reflect on a life lived in service and obedience,
Mary continuing to love, live and reflect on eternity.

Rosanna still a woman,
but in the humanistic, agnostic world
struggling to live a life of faithful, loving service and obedience.
Rosanna continuing to love with God's creative love, living and reflecting not only on eternity but also on what others offer in the face of this world and eternity.

I choose to follow in the footsteps of Mary,
She accepted,
She experienced,
She remained open to possibilities,
She lived her life
in peace,
love,
hope,
growing knowledge, experience and eternity.
