The Road To Righteous

The road to righteous albeit rocky each bump pulls a mighty toll the hills stand steep but majestic I ride unknowing whence I go Night nearer still beseech my way moon comfort me in thou bosom bloom satin rays of great acquaintance nudging me off a sumptuous way Kiss off thy breeze to Compostela deepen ill looks upon mine eye fill vacancy amongst spiritual relation star-bright descend low where I lie

This wonderful poem sounds inspired by a desire for spirituality. There is a pretty good movie w/Martin Sheen called 'The Way' that you may enjoy. I was so taken by it I tried to talk my kid into crossing from the Pyrenees into Spain all the way to Santiago de Compostela:) Amitiés

Thanks so much Charma...I'm reading about 12th century monks and the old feel has entered into this piece.

Ow, this is simply beautiful Tim. I see for some reason a journey on foot or horseback. How that somehow is so spiritual and postive for you.
