My 1st homework assignment was to visit the CATHEDRAL NOTRE DAME resting on the RIVER SEINE! A massive exterior reaching up into the BRIGHT BLUE sky filled with fluffy white clouds. It was a sunny GORGEOUS day in September!
As I ENTERED the church a hush of quiet, many kneeling in prayer, others moving slowly in awe of the IMMENSE BEAUTY; huge arched doorways, ceilings, marble statues & paintings of all the Arch Angels, Saints, Mary, Joseph, Jesus & God. The SUNLIGHT FELL soft as well as bold casting golden shadows across coarse decorated walls & floors. VIBRANT COLORS green, gold, blue, purple & red from the STAINED GLASS burst into the darkness of stark shadowed arched ceilings. Gold, bronze & silver glittered soft & stark as ornamental rails, chalisis, & molding. The STILLNESS as one wanders came as an instant rush, chills, a HEAVENLY experience!
BREATHTAKING, one of many parisian masterpieces! :-))
