The Miracle
I walked into a church today
and though it was not of my faith,
it’s where I sometimes go to pray.
As I sat there with eyes closed
I began to talk to God
and tell him what I had to say.
A great comfort came to me,
as in my vision I could see,
St Francis standing in the back
of the church watching over me.
The miracle I saw was very special
and will always stay in my mind.
As a gift from the Virgin Mary
that she left for me behind.
The Saint moved down the aisle,
with grace and such great style.
Then right in front of me.
What a beautiful sight to see.
He turned into a woman,
in a beautiful blue gown.
She had no face,
but I felt her grace,
as she filled my whole vision
with a view that would astound.
The blue kept getting closer.
And suddenly I found
It went inside my body
and gave me great healing
that had no earthly bounds.
The miracle I saw was very special
and will always stay in my mind.
As my gift from the Virgin Mary
that she left for me behind.
