To a Quiet Place

Autumn leaves have lost their color now Winter's cold has chilled all things Come away my love, He calls to me Come to me and learn before this spring My Spirit longs for more time with Him While gray clouds bring somber days He calls to me, come away my love To a quiet place to set ablaze A heart that aches from life's hurtful times. In my distress he echoes Come away my love; He calls to me To read His word, give Him all my throes. An apple tree among the wood's trees Is my special love; each day He calls to me, come away my love How I long to go and with Him stay.. Roughly based on Song Of Solomon Or Song Of Songs chapter 2 Finis Sponsor: Suzette Contest: Zanita Rhyme

Beautiful poem, Sara...that is His call to each of us, but very few listen. We miss such a blessing when we do not heed His invitation! May you be filled with His presence today! Hugs!
