    I wrote this yesterday, after an agonizing 6 days of writers block! As always, don't be shy to critique my work, I'm very hard to offend :)

    The Sanctuary


    Stars

    that riddle the black sky,

    stitch together the canvas

    Providing light when there is none.

    They are a library, from which dreams are conjured.



    Earth

    Gives a foundation,

    Its guarantee backed by millions of years.

    It is the bed, on which I sleep,

    A vast altar on which my knees can fall.



    Trees

    Build mighty walls,

    Growing with quality through the ages,

    They can guard my body from harm,

    They can give privacy to my soul.



    My home

    Has no doors to be closed,

    Thus all can share it

    So there will be a refuge for all souls

    And a sanctuary for every prayer.
