The Way
Pilgrim! The Only Way awaits;
Expects; each day,
anticipates.
As disenchanted dream fades
and
Crumbles into the dust on
which
Each footstep now records no
mark,
Be gone! – though dream and Way seem dark.
Efface! Enfold the wasted land
Wherein His presence grasps
the hand,
Illuminates, and shows the way
Till peace recovers your
pilgrim
Heart; and with each step hear
Him say,
“You have your friend; your
walk; your Way;
Our odyssey begins with free,
Unconditional company:
Romera y Romero – Me.
Only this do I ask of you:
Sojourn beside me through this
day.
I am
with you. I am The Way.”
