Sanctuary<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I sit in the woods<\/span><\/p>\n

Far away from the noise<\/span><\/p>\n

And busyness of civilization<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The breeze blows past me<\/span><\/p>\n

Softly touching me as it passes<\/span><\/p>\n

My hair moves and settles<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The sounds of birds singing<\/span><\/p>\n

Animals scampering<\/span><\/p>\n

And water as it trickles slowly<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The warmth of the sun<\/span><\/p>\n

Shines through the canopy<\/span><\/p>\n

Casting a shadow of lace<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The smell of musky wetness<\/span><\/p>\n

As the leaves from last fall<\/span><\/p>\n

Carpet the floor<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I close my eyes and take it all in<\/span><\/p>\n

The smells, the sounds, the peace<\/span><\/p>\n

As I worship here<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In my sanctuary <\/span><\/p>\n
