At the Basilica

  Enter, hearts in need of rest, Tread where ancient feet have trod, Feel the Hallow in thy breast, Find in silence words of God; Let the sanctuary leach Peace into thy weary soul, Solitude, let wisdom teach How love can make of parts, a whole.  

Euphrasian Basilica, Porec

 

Enter, hearts in need of rest,

Tread where ancient feet have trod,

Feel the Hallow in thy breast,

Find in silence words of God;

Let the sanctuary leach

Peace into thy weary soul,

Solitude, let wisdom teach

How love can make of parts, a whole.

    I love these sacred spaces; the sanctuary, the silence, the presence of the ages.

      Me, too. You can feel it in your bones as soon as you enter. Thanks, Gallivanta!
