The Commission took note,
In their enquiry report,
Of all the given points,
During the proceedings.
During the site inspection,
What all they had seen,
They noted with description,
In their diary, for examination.
To this team, time was given,
Not less than one year then,
To submit to the highest body,
Their findings on the Lady.
In the present context,
The life of Bernadette,
Wouldn’t fit in a family
And its surroundings homely.
She was a growing woman.
Blessed by Mary Virgin,
She was the only person,
To this mission, was chosen
Thro’ this girl, the spring came,
That cured many, in her name.
Miracles many found their way,
In and around the place, every day.
Vision came to a blind girl,
And a boy’s choked throat hole,
Got healed up and he ate food,
When the spring-water was used.
Such instant miracles proved,
The girl was really blessed
To serve the suffering mass
And chosen for a noble cause.
So, the Dean asked for her choice,
And hear the same thro’ her voice.
The confused poor Bernadette,
Preferred the job of a maid servant.
The Dean explained the position,
And the object of the commission,
It was to give her a higher position,
In the ecclesiastical organization.
When he clearly explained,
She then well understood,
Her importance to the public,
The sufferers and the sick.
Beayuiful account of the life of a most virtuous & God-kissed Woman... Good documentation...Well constructed stanzaec sructure...Solid craftsmanship. FjR
Bernadette became a legend in her own time.Even though it cost her both her home and her family, she remained humble and willing to serve. I think of these words from The Holy Bible, 'Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God'. Lovely write, Rajaram. Warm regards, Sandra

I would like to translate this poem
A great, versification of precision in story-telling, that few on earth can ever achieve! The saint grows; Her sainthood nears! With great regards, Dr John Celes
