On
the mountaintop you stand poised and elegant;
Sunrays
in the morning greet you with a gentle kiss,
Before
saying goodbye they caress you warmly;
How
amazing they appear with their multi-colours!
Your
thought-provoking beauty
Attracts
hundreds of pilgrims in faith;
Who
take refuge in you for a while
Seeking
for solace and new meaning in their lives!
Innocent
birds, rabbits, deer, and other wild animals;
All
are part of your extended generous family!
Unceasingly
they sing praises to their Creator
And
they are unfathomable to the human intelligence!
Hearts
laden with sorrows and fears
Give
way to peace and tranquility
As
they pass by the dazzling little pond;
The
broad-smiling pristine lotus and the fish
Lovingly
touch the fringes of their hearts to lift them up to God!
I
heard praises upon praises
And
wondered if they were true!
Had
I not come to you, I wouldn’t witness them myself;
Absolutely,
they were not wrong!
That’s
what you are—Sacred Heart Jesuit Retreat House!
