Camino Poetry

Time of past OR future Camino
Camino Frances SJPDP--->SDC (Dates TBD)
Hola, Peregrinos!

I haven't made my Camino as yet, but I recently felt inspired to write a poem based on a phrase that we all seem to use around the forum. Any constructive criticism is welcomed and appreciated.

"Buen Camino"
It's a greeting, and a "fare-thee-well",
To wish someone a good journey.
In two short words, in conveys so much.
At the journey's start, with the dawns first golden glow.
Or at day's end, when the walking is done.
One fellow pilgrim to another, across the miles and ages.
Two short words, said with warmth and sincerity-
"Buen Camino".
Both a "hello", and a "see you soon".
To all of my fellow travelers, where you are, where you will be...
I wish a "Buen Camino" in all of your life's journeys.

-WanderingChristian
 
Holoholo automatically captures your footpaths, places, photos, and journals.
Those words will become even more special to you once you have walked a camino! I promise.
