A poem inspired by The Immaculate Conception

Here is a brief poem inspired by the Feast of the Immaculate Conception  (Dec 8).  And a note from Encyclopedia Britannica explaining what that term means:

"Immaculate Conception, Roman Catholic dogma asserting that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was preserved free from the effects of the sin of Adam (usually referred to as “original sin”) from the first instant of her conception."

Immaculate Conception

 

 

Undeserved by anything

except the fact

 

that you were chosen;

virus like

 

it infects everything

you are,

 

everything touched

becomes suspect.

 

Because you are

it is to be

 

expected.
