Texas is a country, not a state. The sun burns so steadily and the
weather is so steamy that it seems like there are three suns, not
one. Her topography comprises the Gulf, bayous, the Piney Woods,
hill country, deserts, mesas, and vast flatlands. The armadillo is
our State animal and the blue bonnet the State
flower. In |
Houston, buildings loom tall, like talismans against the sky.
Such Texas imagery is contained in Our Lady, as is the Holy Mother,
who is holding a horse. The horse is an important
icon of Texas culture; and here, I believe the Holy Mother holds a special place for the
horse in her heart. |
