It is said that going on a pilgrimage erases any sin. My hope with this collection of poems is that after you read them, you feel abolished of any sins you may have, and you feel cleansed.
These poems are a result of my pilgrimage from Chicago, Illinois to England, visiting sacred sites and cathedrals.
~ Kathy
The chapel bell rings,
echoes like a fine glass of wine,
thin and round and bold
shouts come back,
wake up.
Even footsteps echo here,
always returning back to their
source, after touring
through the air, sharing their
crispness with us all.
Grays glow through the stained glass
showing even shadows can shine
given time.
Excerpt
On the beginning of this journey, this pilgrimage, I stopped living day after day, doing the same old thing. This shock out of my normal life helped bring about the start of seeing. A pilgrimage is often seen as a quest for the self. A renewal of the soul. This requires having an open mind and heart. This will transform us, and we will come alive. These poems and reflections are a result of that journey.
