It must have been quite a hike,
in April, late winter this year
or so the question went
for some who went on the Walk to Emmaus
Not understanding this was no ordinary walk,
a crawl really, if the truth be known,
a leisurely sojourn with old friends,
well true brothers at least,
most we have just met
a purposeful walk with our savior
taking our time, to get the most
to drink deeply of this living water
not strapping on new hiking boots
up into the New England woods.
No, we slipped on the sandals of the disciples,
walking the dusty road with the savior,
some for the first time
