Sanctuary
A gentle breeze composed a rhythmic ballad
That danced throughout the lavish trees and
bountiful terrain of nature's divine savanna.
A melodic weeping from a nearby willow
Serenaded the new dawn like a morning lullaby.
Abundant blades of amber and green
Adorned the grass, knoll
Each stalk aligned like perfect little soldiers
Standing guard over their precious mother earth.
Perched high upon the timber
Angelic wings of birds that sing
Embellished the leafy branches
Some preaching to a higher cause
While others proudly rested on their laurels
A candescent sky illuminates a flowing stream
Transforming the water into a pallet of
Extraordinary colors.
Serenity is found in the dawn of each day
And sanctuary is in the moments
That take your breath away.
