Lourdes
A miracle brushes across the fabric of earth’ s time
Disturbing the air, announcing with an angelic chime
The meeting of pilgrimage, journey’s towards eternity
Sacred perfumed scents procure a perpetual serenity.
Bernadette is the simplicity of uncomplicated poverty
Devotion encouraged, through a dedication to humility.

Soothing, chanted prayer, floats across the Lourdes air
Weakened feeble limbs are treated with reverential care
Praying for a miracle, willing the healing of life’s memory
This moving assembly possesses the heavenly remedy
Torches light the darkening sky, processing prayerfully
Celebrating Mary, the crowning glory of healed humanity
