Notes About The Poem

Sanctuary, Soft, Stir, Surreal Words Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Constance La France Written 2/29/2024

Sanctuary

A secure peace in my own home Yet fainted warm hued shadows Woven in and around an empty loom. Whispers disappear into a calmness In quiet unfailing stillness solace Like ascending wispy bearing tendrils. I, submissive to a protective embrace Urged to yield to the seductive feel Breathless in absolute healing solitude I trace my filled days holding in Effortlessly still by its existence Bound by the comfort of my sanctuary.

Dear Eve, your poem beautifully captures the tranquil essence of finding peace within one's own home. The imagery of warm shadows and quiet whispers creates a soothing atmosphere, evoking a sense of peace and serenity. Your words delicately speak of comfort and healing, reminding us of the importance of finding refuge in our spaces. This is an evocative piece. - Blessings, Daniel
