SANCTUARY


by: Beverly J. Anderson


I often feel a need in me
To leave the noise and strife,
And find a place of solitude
Mid ways of country life.

A place of quiet peacefulness
Where life is more serene,
A sanctuary for my soul
Where trees and hills are green.

I'd like to seek a shady glen
Next to a singing stream,
Where I can lay my cares aside
To pray, reflect and dream.

A place where nature reigns supreme,
And birdsong fills the air
With melodies so beautiful,
And no distrations there.

I need communion with the hills,
With beauty that I love;
For there I find a quiet strength
And peace sent from above.
