A Haven Safe
I write for the
aberrate visitor,
that stumbles upon my words
A buried shaft
for them to mine,
a voice that can be heard
Each poem baptized
as a child,
redemptions holy source
To comfort those
in pain and loss,
escape from their remorse
A secret voice
for searching ears,
that wander then alone
A haven safe
to offer hope
—and welcome them back home
(Villanova Pennsylvania: November, 2019)
