Saving Grace

Outside my room The light of the moon Autos on the street Create the urban beat Eyes which crave peace When all troubles cease Light up again Through the magic of a pen We all seek a home Which we'll find in a poem Let the magic start We'll find redemption through art!

Awesome imagery here. Can just feel the moonbeams pouring in, the comforting sounds of the city, as you rest peaceful, become inspired and begin this wonderful poem. Love, Shar
