Mother Mary's May

May is the month we dedicate to Mary,
we honor mothers on their Mother’s Day,
Mary’s our Mother super-honorary,
Mother of God and man more than just May.

May brings us spring, and all the beautiful flowers
do honor to our mother Mary true,
no goddess, yet blest with God-given powers,
bestowed by Christ, the Son she leads us to.

As Mother of our God, what else is left?
She’s Mother of us all and everything,
without her “Yes,” we would be all bereft
of our Redeemer, Christ her Son and King.

In May and spring when everything is green,
let’s honor Mother Mary, heaven’s Queen.
