The Mary Garden, a sacred space with deep roots in the Middle Ages, has profound historical significance. It first gained prominence in monasteries and convents, serving as a sanctuary for spiritual reflection and connection. This role is key, as it provides a calm and introspective space for all who visit. As time passed, the garden's allure expanded, spreading its sacred beauty to both public and private spaces. Enveloped by a diverse array of beautiful flowers, herbs, and foliage, Mary Gardens are more than just contemplative spaces; they are reverent environments that serve as a spiritual beacon, reminding us of the Blessed Mother as the epitome of perfect love and obedience to Christ. They also serve as a place where we can pray and give thanks to Our Lord. Mary Gardens uplift our spirits and reinforce our connection to the Blessed Mother as 'our' mother, a bond appointed to humanity by Jesus on the cross. They are also a place where we can feel connected and inspired as we reflect on the words of Jesus, "When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, 'Woman, behold, your son!' Then he said to the disciple, 'Behold, your mother!' And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.' (John 19:26-27) The Mary Garden, as depicted through the poetry and photography of Maryann Ridini Spencer, is a 'visual' Mary Garden that inspires spiritual reflection. Her work captures the exotic beauty of Hawaiian flora and the stunning, majestic vistas, and the poetry serves as a conduit for the reader's contemplation of God's glory, inviting them to give thanks and praise for the beauty of His creation and His mercy and grace.
