Silent skies

Noise and chaos 
is the world outside 
while silence is our inner self. 
Stop and reflect 
every once in awhile 
escape the world 
that rages outside. 
A sacred place 
of peace and tranquillity 
sheltering beneath silent skies.

Beryl Edmonds Date: 6/18/2025 8:50:00 AM Hi brother John, sometimes we need our sacred place, away from the facades we may have to face. We learn who we can trust, and who we cannot. I’ve found that out to my cost, now I’m keeping away from the rot… Sis Beryl
