What is the Rosary?
October is the Month of the Rosary, and many authors have already written insightful and inspiring articles explaining and promoting it. We know the rosary is a tremendous tool, and that it also has many positive physiological benefits besides the more obvious spiritual ones.
But this October, I thought I’d try my hand at something a little different, namely a poem about the rosary. Here it is, in three short verses.
What is the Rosary?
A rosary’s a ladder;
It goes up and down.
Connects us to Heaven,
Through Mary, on the ground.
Through the life of our Lord,
We travel anew.
By His death, we’re forgiven;
The covenant renewed.
By the work of the Church,
We two are made one.
Now our prayers are hers,
‘till God’s kingdom comes.
