Ecstatic Poetry

I sprinkle holy water over the crown of my head as I enter the sacred heart of Our Lady of Lourdes Church Breathing in peace and tranquility of this blessed church, lighting a few candles, I kneel at rose petaled feet of the Divine Mother My Soul enters a heavenly portal I think of all Her suffering children and pray She alleviate their pain with voice cracking: "So many afflicted, in anguish, please help, have mercy" Healing, gurgling fountains of Lourdes flows unceasing Misty visions drift through the quiet atmosphere Rose of Sharon, His gentle hands outstretched appears and the soft face of His Mother swims towards me my tears mingle with the miraculous waters a garland of lotus blossoms floating on the Cosmic Sea Hymns gush forth from my grateful heart echoing through the empty church: "Joyful, joyful we adore Thee God of Glory, Lord of Love Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee, opening to the Sun above"

Thank you Sandie for your thoughtful, reflective comments, I truly appreciate your feedback.

Dear Ron, the above photo was taken at the Mair Family Reunion, Westmoreland, Jamaica. This is the Anglican church my Father's side of the family prayed and congregated in. Outside, on the church grounds we were able to visit family burial sites.
And yes the inner spiritual realms are spectacular and amazing to bare witness to.

Blessings and Love,
Sonya Ki

There is a sudden onset of powerful intensive joy in this poem as you enter the sacred heart of Lady of Lourdes Church that is well-expressed through your words. It's very refreshing!
