not the destination
but the journey
it’s the road we travel
the Lenten season
walking with our Lord
through the time of his passion
getting the dust upon us
reading the words
walking with the disciples
the air of foreboding
the gathering clouds,
the coming night,
as we journey
with them, with Jesus
our brother, our Master
the Savior of us all
going to Jerusalem’s gate
to David’s holy city
where all God’s prophets died
walking with Jesus
walking by his side
as he taught of God’s love
walking, an example
of how to journey in this life
