each step draws
you around
and around again
in never-ending circles
*
we’ve been here before
walked these paths
trodden this ground
*
open your mind
open your heart
open your soul
*
and see
how each turn takes you
deeper
*
into your mind
into your heart
into your soul
*
glimpse eternity’s quietude
in the sunlight
playing upon the stones
*
follow the path with
gracious steps
for you walk not in circles
but within a meditative spiral
These photos, along with last week’s Wordless Wednesday picture, were taken at a local Japanese Meditation Garden that I visited with my mum (Millie Thom) a few weeks ago. If you’d like to know more about the garden then you can check out my mum’s post about it here. It was a beautiful place.
