Sanctuary

Sanctuary
Inspired by an hour plus at Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden and Bird Sanctuary

A place peaceful and beautiful
scenes so idyllic and right
you feel it in your stomach
it starts to satisfy, soothe and excite your soul

A place where quiet and slow come naturally, fit with ease
it's difficult to hurry even if you want to
A look at your watch is a pleasant surprise at how little time has passed
but finally, it's hard to go

Banishment from Eden must have been an awful thing

God beyond all names, be sanctuary for my soul
so my departure will not mean
I am banished from Eden again

-Monica, 5/8/08
