My Journey to God

Cathedral

Pillar’s gold shimmers brightly in the sun,
streaming in the stained-glass window.
Quietness fills the air,
sitting silent in a pew.
The mural of Him is so big, so pretty.
Spiral stairs adorn the sides.
Feel the hope, the love, of this place.
Eyes see the pictures of the pain,
the hardship,
of the Rock,
of our cathedral,
the sacred place that consumes our hearts.
Angels above me feel
the Spirit’s fiery heat,
holy flame burning bright
in you,
in me,
because of
this holy place.
