TRAVELING MERCIES -- WOODY & NORMA

[My friends will be touring different countries in Europe for several months and I wrote the following Traveling Mercies poem for them]

         You both are enjoying the luxury of retirement
            And have decided to be more adventurous
             With traveling plans to far away countries
        You’ll explore, dream and discover new places
              Their intrinsic grandeur clearly defined

            While traveling through fascinating places
             May God guide and direct your every step
                     Keeping you safe from evil intent
             As you fulfill the purpose of your journey
                  And expand your traveling horizon

          May the beautiful and artistic things you see
                  Be forever etched in your memory
       Let your hearts be warmed of friends you made        
            In the wonderful places you eagerly visited
            Making you glad your paths have crossed  
 
           When your travels happily come to a close
      And your thoughts are focused homeward-bound
                  May you return safe and secure
          Refreshed, renewed and happy to be back
     Sharing your experiences with family and friends
