There is a place that I call my own <br />It's a place I treasure and can be alone. <br />It's somewhere I can go to just be free... <br />Where I can become exactly what I want to be. <br /> <br />Do you visit this place inside of your mind? <br />It’s a place where most everyone can find. <br />A quiet solarium where God can teach, <br />No TV’s or cells a place no one can reach. <br /> <br />A room filled with white, champagne cream and lace. <br />Or is your refuge a colourful place? <br />Purples, pinks, blue, green and teal shades like no other? <br />Such a beautiful world we all can discover! <br /> <br />A special place to retreat or just go to hide. <br />When times are tough and it feels better inside. <br />We can reach for God and acknowledge he's there. <br />He can open up doors-oh yes he does care! <br /> <br />Display sunshine when only clouds are seen, <br />I know we all wonder sometimes where has he been? <br />To you my friend I say he is there! <br />And yes, no matter what you did, Yes he does care! <br /> <br />He is in the smile on your loved ones face, <br />He is in the love you feel from an embrace, <br />He is sitting beside you as you take a nap~ <br />Stroking your hair and cradling your cap… <br /> <br />Yes, a healthy dose of Faith brings heaven to you, <br />It’s called meditation and prayer and its there for you too, <br />and in case you don't know where to start, talk to the Lord <br />and the answers will fill your mind and heart!<br /><br />Shelley L Baxter<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-place-to-treasure/
