Jerusalem

Jerusalem a city, I would love to visit like a warm kitty. Walking on the blood dripped cobblestone, the many pathways from old will seem to groan. As I shop, will I need pieces of silver to drop? The sounds I can almost hear, people giving out a big cheer. Thousands of years of fear, yet it seems so very near. To visit one day, may my dream come true I pray. Date Written: 12/16/2022

Hi Paula, hope your dream will come true. I could visit Jerusalem in my trip to the Holy land. Old Jerusalem really fascinated me with its walls surrounding it and the remnants of the church built by Solomon. Enjoyed reading your poem.

I would also love to go to Jerusalem - what history, mostly biblical is in this city, The same paving maybe, where he spilled his blood as he was carrying his cross. I love your poem Paula and hope your dream comes true. A happy blessed and peaceful Christmas to you and yours . Hugs Jennifer.

oh I hope you get your dream, Paula. I actually got to visit those streets. And i did an entire tour of Israel on the way back from Semester Abroad in Madrid. I am so thankful I got to do all my traveling before marrying a guy who won't even leave the states.
