Sacred Serenity Sweet moonlight, kissing cool waters, As the lake lazily twiddles its thumbs. Starry skies match starry eyes; I am dreamily delighted by serenity surrounding me. Little creatures skitter cautiously Through overgrown undergrowth behind me. A candy coated breeze Giggles amongst the daisies in the grass, And little, naughty dandelions, Blow fluffy seeds into my eyes. This is my sacred place, and my sacred time. A vision in my mind. -Lynne Chudley Lynne "He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened." Lao-tsu |

Lynne... yes I know this one, I think this one's one of the most beautiful poems you wrote. I hope your heart is just like what you described in your poem... - James The beauty of nature is displayed, not through itself, but through the creatures dwelling within its bosom. |
