Land Of Truth Not Lies

Land Of Truth Not Lies

I journey through a cruel world,
To my home of light and love.
So hastening on a quiet path,
Avoiding life's push and shove.

Anxiously will my heart surrender,
To that place of longing and stay.
So my eyes shall rest in slumber,
Casting doubts and sorrows away.

Vexed temptations all around me,
Fatuous things I dismiss away.
For I see the sunlight beaming,
On my abode of endless day.

Nothing there to be my captor,
Abuse and ails do pale and die.
Perfect peace shared by many,
Good friends to greet and glorify.

Welcoming sights and sounds,
As I dry my weeping eyes.
My sanctum of calm and bliss,
In a land of truth not lies.

In this haven lies sweet redemption,
A spirit whole that once was torn.
An inner peace will dwell within me,
So that a soul may be reborn.

Marion diolch for your uplifting and most gracious comment and I guess we all do yearn in our hectic lives for some kind of safe paradise or honest utopia and if we're lucky enough to find it, even albeit briefly, it's good to know it's out there and accessible for all.
Wishing you well and this so so poet will be reading you from tomorrow eve' to view a touch of class and to learn from. x.

Gwen thank you so much and peace and calm to your good self and wrote this and added to it while going through the ringer lately but small tender mercies and all that.
And now a burden finally lifted
Back later tomorrow tonight to catch up on your latest and other many members also.
See you then and your comments are the perfect tonic after a demanding work day.
Calm and that soothing balm of bliss in equal measure.
Thank you so much my friend. x.
