The Virgin Mary

I WOULD LIKE MANY ENTRIES IT CAN BE A POEM FROM WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG AS LONG AS YOU SAY MARY
I want prewrites so just be sure
it would be good to mention the Virgin Mary at Christmas as the Mother of Jesus

but if you can enter my contest all you need to do is mention Mary
in any form even if it is about the christmas tree
or about manger you can read my poem
Snow on Christmas
Christmas Tree Remembrance
They are poems not about nativity but mentions mary
IT WOULD BE GOOD IF YOUR POEM HAS NOT WON A CONTEST BUT IF YOUR POEM HAS NOT WON A GOLD , BRONZE OR SILVER SUBMIT
PLEASE SUBMIT IF IT HAS ONLY ONE PRIZE
mention her name in poem in some kind of honor of her

it is not about nativity but mentions mary
you can mention her feeling about being chosen by God
you can remember the Immaculate Conception
The angel appeared to her and Mary said Yes
You need to mention she is the mother of Jesus
mention her name in poem in some kind of honor of her

I wrote a little passage
An angel appeared to Mary and she answered yes
if she was not Mary and she answered No
who would be Jesus's Mother
Who would be God's Son
but as it was a long long time ago
and angel appeared to Mary and she answered yes
now she is in heaven and she is very blest

remember she was poor but happy she was chosen by God
my passage has more it is kinda lame
it was taken from a priest gospel it is from memory

thanks to orangemarmalade and Freed by Mercy
for making this contest possible
they may submit a poem to this contest
of course I will not know which poem is theirs
They already showed me thier devotion to the Blessed Mother
and she is the Virgin Mary

    Since your background is dark, it would be best if your type was white and/ or light in color so that the contest is legible.

    Sorry... Black typing om dark blue background is quite illegible. If you feel you MUST have a blue background - PLEASE make it lighter.

    Gentle Whisper

    A silent death she suffers thought the night
    her tears only embrace her sorrow and fright
    with a glimpse of hope
    and faith in a prayer
    only with the touch of a hand
    a subtle peace will enter the night
    as Mary rocks her and holds her tight
    And with a gentle whisper will embrace her fright
