My Sanctuary

Colors paint the blank canvas 

providing a sheet of protection                                          

as the yellow sun competes 

with the snow-capped peaks

for the first one to graze the clouds


Today the sun triumphs 

It shines bright

illuminating all of God’s vast creation


The musky water 

reflects the starry night sky 

as the moon shines bright

giving directions to those in need


The lush green grass 

swaying in the brisk wind

lets off a gentle aroma 


A sense of security swept over me

as I saw God all throughout


In the swaying grass

the bright sun

the unique peaks

the colors that swirled through the sky

In me
