The Walking Poem

Today I will arise
And walk towards
The Light.
I’ll lift each foot,
One
Then the other.
Each time falling
Towards Grace
Each time leaning
Towards Truth.

And I will not
Walk alone.

For I always
Carry with me
Fellow Believers
Fellows in the Walk
Each leaning
Each falling
Towards the Truth
Towards the Light
Each and always
Holding each other
Waking
Together
And knowing
Tomorrow
I will arise again,
And Walk.
