*~ Secrets Within Sanctuary ~* (Poetic Journey)

 

 

 

 

 

Only the personally invited allowed inside
for they possess features not found
in everybody,  yes equality exists
but each person unique,  purpose in life
one of a kind to the individual.

The unique ones would understand my world
and so through the silver gates they pass
into another realm where reality isn't measured
by the amount of money made nor how many
friends in the definitive term.

     Pillars bow and greet,  honored to have guests~

They stand sentry day into night,
ever watchful of negative outsiders
who 'try' to make it miserable for many.

A Sacred bridge must be crossed
over serene waters where wishes
are granted
without a penny tossed.

All one has to do is close their closet door
of 'I can't'...
and say 'It can be done'...

Then open their windows to watch
miracles happen.

    The boundary cannot be seen but felt
     when the threshold has been reached.

Naysayers never get in,
what they envision are weeds amidst trees
without color for that is what they perceive
their life to be.

Dreamers who weave wonders
step into a crystal ball of creativity
unlike anything imaginable.

Dreamcatchers catch kling-ons carefully
so shadows are swiftly caught;
are unable to follow into Sanctuary.

Aurae radiate and consume the senses
where a smile instantaneously appears.
A waterfall of warmth flows throughout
and cleanse the mental,  emotional
also spiritual dirt that accumulated.

If illness infiltrated the fragile body,
it does not have a home in this Sacred place.
Anything can be achieved,
just think it to be and say 'tis up to me'.

     Free will wraps the mind,  releases inhibitions~

I walk on clouds made from mist
my hands form and frame;
a flying carpet of sorts.

Here I can run fast,  faster than I ever could before
without loss of breath or lightning bolts
radiating within my veins or joints.

The inner child,  intuition observant
within my surroundings,  sight 20/20
as creatures come out of their dwellings.

We travel limitless,  take scenic routes
for time stops until I say go.

Age is but a number,  non-existent
in regards to reaching high to hug a star
and bid many thanks for the moments
they heard my pleas.

Secrets are saved for visitors to discover,
handicaps don't hinder here ever.
The deaf can hear,  blind can see
along with the crippled don't crawl
but walk or ride on whatever
mode of transporation desired.

Abuse an afterthought,
the air comforts also circumvents Love
to disintegrate the damage,
instill belief (once tainted) in the human Spirit.

Nature sings Soulful melodies
during each journey,  I join in
as salted rivers are released
from my enlightened eyes.

There are plenty of activities
everybody can truly enjoy;

     a person is 'only' limited by the limits
     he or she sets before self.

    The range of emotions I experienced reading this was incredible. What I love about it is the truth of a reality many care not to venture to or try to and the message of the whole piece. That is strong and another truth. This touches my soul and I know this place or a similiar one almost too well, so well I often do not want my feet to touch the earth. Well done!

    This was just a huge breath to take in and exhale. It was beautiful and simly crooned not only with good rhythm but also with a beauty that can only come from a soul such as yours.

    Beautiful write, Desire. This piece made me think of heaven or at least of a place we may consider as heaven, like maybe it all depends on how we see our life or how we live our life and if we can make choices to try to make our lives and our world better maybe then we can live better lives. Good luck in the contest.

    My dear friend,

    I can so relate to this one! I have some on here, that are on this subject, Am I Different? and Does It Matter? And how people today, just don't stop and think about how they treat someone just because of the outside shell... Which really bothers me! For many reasons, but still...

    Any ways, best of luck in this contest!

    and love

    Nettie

    I would like to be a part of this place where people are not treated differently because of what is seen on the outside.. (I know you know what I mean.. hope you do) it seems so unfair that while we do not judge nor nay say... the attitude is still returned ten fold... I love this one, one of your best.... just made me think about what a world we live in....
