and on the way
we will gather
peace and hope
We Will Follow The Star To Christmas
Pilgrimage To The Squirrel Bench
worship as
an acorn eaten
a devotion left
Pilgrimage
During the quiet of the night
they come from all directions on paw and hoof
to reach the sacred spot and journey beyond.
Assembly
In the Northeast Kingdom
monarchs flock to the butterfly bush
before their pilgrimage south to sunny Mexico.
Reeds
When the reeds begin to sing their rustling song of early Fall
the geese know it is time to prepare for their pilgrimage south.
