- Camino Frances (2017)
Four days to go, and I’m all set,
Equipment, clothing’s now packed up;
There’s simply nothing left to fret,
Though depth and meaning wait there yet,
As I drink from the pilgrim’s cup.
The little hikes around my home,
Which I have taken to prepare,
Have made me ready now to roam
Camino’s trails with deep shalom
And others’ journeys soon to share.
I worry ’bout my body, though;
Shin splints and aches I’ve deeply felt.
I am not thirty, don’t I know!
I used to be a dynamo,
But I’m no longer trim and svelte!
Yet strangely I’m not worried now.
It may be total ignorance,
But these 500 miles somehow
I think I’ll make – if you’ll allow –
And do it with exuberance!
