Child of Weakness

May 5, 2011September 16, 2020Mary Jo3 Comments on Child of Weakness

Overslept

Through the nuptials of William and Kate.

Why is it Called Good?

April 22, 2011May 10, 2020Mary Jo5 Comments on Why is it Called Good?

As He hung there so misunderstood,

And that’s what makes this Friday good.

Mary’s Messy Melancholy Morning

April 7, 2011July 6, 2020Mary Jo10 Comments on Mary’s Messy Melancholy Morning
