Mother of God With A Blanket of Pomegranates




Wrapping your Son
in a blanket of pomegranates,
O Lady,
life-promise in our aridity,
love's wound,
the breaking open, 
the disbursement
of heaven's gifts in us,
display of love.

O Christ our God,
descending to the underworld
of minds and
crying out:
Lustration
is in my 
tears and blood ~
the purification 
of hatred's
sins.
