Musical Sanctuary

Nightingales serenade my soul
as do guitars, violins to console

their background of music I hear
pierce through, visions soon appear

I leave the world of commotion
feel beauty from peace and emotion

find solace in the sounds I hear
instrumential music I hold so dear 

memories of passions spent increase
rising emotions begin to release

allows me to wander through glorious dreams
of wondrous wonder from musical themes

where butterflies dance in luminous light
and float and drift in continuous flight

I face the softest warmest breeze
to see the world fade in an evening's ease

could that this beauty forever be found
in my peaceful sanctuary of musical sound
