My Prague

As I watch this radiant space Beyond cloud’s torch, prayers retrace Where the ledges of Prague’s border Adorns steeples touching moonlight. In Lesser Town of holy rites, Infant Child stands like gleam so fair As I watch this radiant space Beyond cloud's torch, prayers retrace A chorale drifts in soft procession Jesus’ feasts blaze with devotion Where the ledges from Prague’s border, Infant Child stands like gleam so fair. As I watch this radiant space Beyond cloud's torch, prayers retrace. *Lesser Town: place in Prague, Czechoslovakia where the famous statue of Infant Jesus is enshrined. Thousands of pilgrims join a parade to honor and show RESPECT for this Child. Dr. Ram Sonetta Rispetto by nette onclaud

This is so---human. And yet so divinely conveyed. Your images project the beauty of place which has a spiritual aura because the Infant Child resides there. I find this to be impeccable--

I was taken by the gentle unraveling of the mysticism of life through deep worship in this beautiful place. Humans become one under a godly experience--- finely written poem, Nette. I enjoyed being part of your last contest. Thank you so much!

This is beautiful, Nette, even more when I recall my visit there about twelve years ago. Prague is one of the loveliest cities that I have seen and I have lovely memories of its attractive architecture, river, etc. // paul
