Robin L. Gass Poet Quatrain

My Place of Beauty

There is a place of beauty
that I have come to know.
A rich and lovely garden
where fragrant flowers grow.

A place of endless wonders
for the heart to see
filled with priceless treasures
a majestic gallery.

So many precious paintings
are hung upon its walls
and songs of truth and empathy
ring clearly through its halls.

In this cove of peace and healing
where my wounded soul soars free
dwells a band of Gods own angels
that I know he sent to me.

I am thankful for the blessing
of this place I've come to know
a place of grace and splendor
where the seeds of kindness grow.




Inspired by Nigel Fawcetts'
Places of Majestic Inspiration contest
