Poem #26 from a series of meditations: the Pilgrim
Back to the Pilgrim – Introduction
oh pilgrim
there is so much
here
in this place we inhabit
that is without our agreement
without explanation
with no need for our awareness
or involvement
you and I
are mere travelers
regarding the road we walk
with awe and wonder
and if
if there is a purpose
beyond simply passing this way
then that will be played out
in the manner required
participation
in a definition of the purpose
of what we are to do
is not a task assigned
to either you
or me
it is not a factor
in the fulfilment
of destiny
