Virgin of the Streets
Wayside shrine, Virgin of Guadalupe, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México
 
A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps.

Lady of the Way,
as I scurry here and there,
guide my steps, I pray.

Even when Mary’s askew,
Imagine what she can do
For those whose lives are shaken,
And those who feel forsaken.

From all crooked ways
that would lure me from the light,
keep my stumbling feet.

because of my yammering,
Mary prays harder.
