A beautiful church

A beautiful church

A Poem by Nisreen

Soft drops of rain
descending

a heavenly sky

touched my fingers 
during day

a door made 
of the oldest wood

lit candles
glass painted windows 

the calm bench
only with my thoughts

a prayer

At the Notre Dame

the door
the bench
the windows
and candles... and we are there

i try to make it to a big Catholic church every year to get a different reverent
approach to God that isn't found in as many Protestant churches...
reminded me I need to go...

Notre Dame de Paris?!!

What a place! What a church! A beautiful building and a place of such quiet reflection and harmony.
A trip down memory lane across a crowded square and into the bowels of this place of heavenly solitude.

Very nice writing, as always Nisreen.

Aahh....this poem took me on a trip down memory lane to a little chapel in a forest......will share my thoughts and a pic of that chapel in my next poem.....

That peace is quite out of this world. Well put.

Thank you ..... I look forward to reading yours
I think this poem is filled with passion... this feels very echo-ey, like I'm in a tunnel... the way you made me feel the rain on my fingertips and then that bench i was sitting in momentarily, i heard whispers, nothing solid, just aberrations. very great poetry!!!

Thank you for your kind words
Heartwarming, the scene of church is a lovely thing to me... The serenity, peace and inspiration it provides is just unbelievable, and when the church is old then it becomes little of interesting and encouraging... Lovely write frnd...

a place of refuge,a place of peace,a place where we talk about all our needs
and the catholic holds a mystic kind of refuge
