Sanctuary

Sanctuary

When I secure my abode at night,
I shut out fear and ugly deeds.
I fasten each bolt snugly tight,
Feeling safe in all ones needs.

Expel pain that sadness shows,
Securing in joys dear to me.
I evict ills that life expose,
And seal in sweet security.

I oust sorrows glum acerbity,
Lock in  hope and love divine.
With quiet happiness and harmony,
Safe in this sanctuary of mine.

Hi Shaun I think we can all relate to this, especially at the moment where our home has been our only safe sanctuary with the use of technology to do alot of things we use to do outdoors.
lovely little write with a deeper meaning...Px

Lovely poem shaun, every reader can connect with this, sanctuary can take many forms. Your home can be your sanctuary, your family or friends but I think its important if we can make our own minds our sanctuary. unfortunately for many their mind is their worse enemy and what they are seeking sanctuary from ❤

Being Me

A lovely poem which brings many things to mind. Our home should be our sanctuary but so many find this not true... and my heart goes out to them. My home is definitely my sanctuary x
