My Sanctuary
My mind still blazes from the ridicule and pain
As I climb up high with so many things swarming around my brain.
I talk out loud to sooth my soul.
When I finally reach the branch I normally sit on,
I talk about what's on my mind,
Just to get it out of my system.
Occasionally I sit and draw what's bugging me,
Or I sit and write some poems.
I consider my trees sanctuaries,
The kind that sooth my soul.
They are a monument to Heaven and Earth
As they stand tall and erect.
I love it when the big tulip popular buds
And blooms
And grows.
It's my favorite tree because up top it's like you can touch the heavens.
Sometimes I wonder how my life would differ
If I couldn't climb these trees,
For way up there
It's like another world.
For it is my sanctuary,
My life,
No...
My soul.
