The church stood by the river,
unflinching guardian for ages, scanning the horizon,
It’s steeples, like a bony hand raised in benediction,
Blessing the flowing waters on its journey.
For some, the church is like parent's home,
For a weekend visit or a place to be one festive days,
For others, a place for milestone events,
Baptisms, weddings and the final farewells.
