Thank you for the lovely photos of the Bon Secours Entrance to the building – and walkway to the Garden. My husband and I love going to Bon Secours Garden – but have only gone twice since the pandemic hit Maryland in March of 2020. I love to write poetry – especially when I am in the Garden. I was inspired by these photos to write the following reflection:
stillness and silence
approaching the sanctuary
time to
slow down and unwind
time to
relax and renew
time to
connect one’s Self
with the Spirit
the soul is revived
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing, Judith.
