Quote: "Remember, the entrance door to the sanctuary is inside you" -- Rumi In the tremors of the earth's gentle dance, Our sanctuary senses the rhythmic trance. A haven we seek, when foundations quake, Shelter we crave, refuge we make. In the echoes of chaos, a longing is born, For a sanctuary of love, steadfast and warm. A fortress against the tremors within, To shield from insecurity, loneliness akin. I dream of a haven, a sanctuary divine, Where love's embrace is an unbroken line. In the quake of doubt, a pillar to rely, A sanctuary of love, where spirits can fly. When the world rattles with its thunderous might, Our sanctuary stands, an unwavering light. A beacon of solace, in the tremulous night, Guiding our hearts, in love's tender flight. Oh, sanctuary of love, with walls made of care, A refuge so strong, a haven so rare. Against the tempests, we'll weather and cope, In the arms of love, our sanctuary of hope.

beautifully written poem, Jay, and a fabulous contest submission. I'd like to visit the sanctuary your described--sounds heavenly. I especially liked this line: I dream of a haven, a sanctuary divine, here love's embrace is an unbroken line. A 'sanctuary of hope' was the perfect ending. You're truly gifted and have a poetic voice that I enjoy. Have a great evening, Sara
