This is my refuge.
And in our intertwined lives,
I’ve found sanctuary.

There are some storms, yes,
And gusts of wind, pouring rain –
So much grows after!

A garden of peace –
A quiet place of wonder –
 Sweet music wafts through.

Here are dreams and songs
Kindness ripples around rocks.
Graceful trees abound.

When the world grows stale
I retreat to my refuge.
Moonlight grows bright here.

Is gratitude parched?
Mine drinks deep from rippling streams.
I come home to you.
