Sanctuary When I give vow the wed of sleep, I search within this lair of reap, A place to share the elsewhere. A point perhaps where I do hide, A sanctuary of abide. A neighborhood of safe declare. A berth where I can soothe my ill. A place where I can air my will. An area, where I am bare. Through the corridors of maroon, A place to mend and lick my wounds. A tend where prey can utter prayer. From the acids that eat my goal. A place where I can treat my soul. |

That brings back fond memories of cuddling in my father's lap - the safest feeling in the world. Sunshine Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Seymour, once again you've shared a mixture of darkness and light, comfort and contrast. Very nicely shared, I might add. I admire your language use. Thank you. This is wonderful. Claire |

Well put Sir Tabin... "A place where I can treat my soul." Sanctuary?... found in the love of my wife and daughters, for there is no better place to be. |
