Built around 1815 this church in the hills of Chimayo, New Mexico, is considered a masterpiece of colonial folk art and architecture and has been deemed a National Historic Landmark. Famed for its miraculous cross and the healing powers of the soil, the Prayer Room is filled with candles, cards & crude hand made shrines as well as crutches and braces testifying to miracles. Directly across the road they sell the best chili powder money can buy.

Chris and I went to a little village called Litton, where there is a huge church. To the back is a little graveyard, with a few grave stones, some very old. Before we went in to take some pictures, we read a plaque on the wall of a building next to the grave yard,, it said ’’The children who died in Litton Mill are buried without Tombstones in this section of the churchyard’‘ This is so sad, they were pauper and orphaned children and were treated very badly. They were brought here from as far away as London, and had to then work in dreadful conditions, for long, long hours with very little food and when they died they were buried without tombstones, so that no one would know how badly they had been treated and also how they died, hiding the truth about what went on. / I thought it would be a nice tribute to them, to make a picture from various photos I took in the graveyard,,and place little Poppies around in their memory,, poor little children..I hope you like it.. Sophie Shapiro has shared this poem with us,,it’s beautiful and sad,,at the same time x WE’RE ALIKE, YOU AND I / We’re alike, you and I. / We’ve never met / Our faces would be those of strangers if we met / We would barely perceive the other’s presence / If we passed on our walk through the mists / We’re unknown to each other / Until the terrible words have been spoken / “MY CHILD DIED” We’re alike, you and I / We measure time in seconds and eternities / We try to go forward to yesterday / Tomorrows are for the whole people, / And we are incomplete now / The tears after a time turn inward / To become invisible to all save you and me / Our souls are rumpled from wrestling with demons. / And doubts and unanswerable prayers. / “GIVE ME BACK MY CHILD” We’re alike, you and I. / The tears that run down your face are my tears / And the wound in your soul is my pain too. / We need time, but time is our enemy / For it carries us farther and farther / From our lost child / And we cry out; / “HELP ME” We’re alike, you and I. / And we need each other / Don’t turn away, but give me your hand / And for a time we can cease to be strangers / And become what we truly are, / A family closer than blood. / United by a bond that was forced upon us—- / But a bond that can make us stronger, / Still wounded and not to sure, / But stronger for our sorrows are shared. / “WE NEED NOT WALK ALONE” / Written by Judy Dickey* Thank you Sophie x

8×10 Watercolour painting on Arches Paper with a touch of pastel to add texture. I stand and stare in awe at my find / this idyllic place fills my mind. / Time stands still as the mist rolls in and / The sunset announces night will begin. / I feel an awakening deep inside / peace replaces fear and my worries subside.

A little different angle of this amazing church! The Collegiate Church of St Peter at Westminster, which is almost always referred to popularly and informally as Westminster Abbey, is a large, mainly Gothic church, in Westminster, London, just to the west of the Palace of Westminster. It is the traditional place of coronation and burial site for English, later British and later still (and currently) monarchs of the Commonwealth Realms. Taken from Wikipedia
