The bouquet found in your heart,
Is a very special one.
It's a fact you are a star,
Though your heart is not a sun.

Your heart is full of sunshine,
But doesn't have extreme heat:
It's one that is full of love,
And it's also very sweet.

Your heart is known for beauty,
In it, there's much TLC.
As your heart keeps on growing,
So much more virtues we'll see.

The bouquet found in your heart,
Is truly a work of art.

Loving Blessed Mother Mary,
Heaven's path, Mother, help us find.
Help us to stay close to Jesus,
Ask him to show us peace of mind.

In God help us to put our trust,
Lost, Mother help us not become.
Like you Mother help us to strive,        
To become part of God's kingdom.

On the path that leads to heaven,
To it dear Mother show the way.  
Help us stay close to Jesus Crist,                        
On heaven's path help us to stay.      

For our lives, Jesus paid the cost.      
Mother help us not become lost,

Chastity is so crucial,                            
In proving one’s love is true.
It helps us with self-control,
To face life with a clear view.

In single and married life,
We must guard our chastity.
Showing concern for others,
Will help us so we'll be free.

A chaste life is a treasure
  Throughout the stages of life:                                          
It helps maintain a marriage,
Through chaotic times of strife.

That’s where real love flourishes,
Where joys often tag along,
A virtue with great power,
That keeps much from going wrong.

It disciplines our bodies,
Helping us to live lives pure,
It helps us manage our lives.
With the courage to endure.


notes:      I had Chastity on poetry,com. I changed a couple words to touch it up and improve beat.  11-25-2022

I know you love me, dear Lord
Graciously love I'll give thee.        
How I can please you the most,
Dear Lord, help me come to see.  

When I love my neighbors,
I am also loving Thee.
And when I serve my neighbors,
Help me do so lovingly.                      

When I find life caving in,
Your hand, Lord, reach out to me,
Show me Lord, how much you care,
And bestow on me mercy.

Dear Lord, I know you love me,
Spiritually help me see.
