Inspirational Poem


In The Quiet Time

In the quiet time
The moments when I commune with God
I am lifted to a place
Where beauty wraps herself
Around me
Peace enters my spirit
Embracing, then erasing my needs
And the relaxing ribbon on serenity
Connects me to the eternity between
Yesterday and tomorrow
I am at one with the universe
My soul is renewed
I am again made whole
