A Rosary from Jasna Gora
For, as always, Our Lady of Czestochowa
and for Kirk Briggs
A little string of wooden gift shop beads
Each bead a hymn along the pilgrimage
From Nazareth to Bethlehem to - to us
Praying again the Angel’s greeting-song
A hymn of the universe sung and told,
And written 1 by Saint Luke upon a board
From the Table where all have come to share
Both feast and Feast, until the world shall end
O Lady of the Mountain Bright, please bless
Us through these humble wooden gift shop beads
1 In Orthodoxy an ikon is said to be written
