All three of these exist for me

in just one special place–

an altar in a sacred space

within my hallowed home.

It’s a focus of rejuvenation,

reflection and prayer.

It’s my refuge, my heart,

my essential need;

A place to nurture my yearning soul.

This peaceful sanctum helps cultivate

and guide me in this life’s

chance to grow and love.

I turn to this place that offers

comfort to me, to learn compassion

and consideration and improve myself.

My Lord is there, my God, my Mother, and

all the world’s sages and saints are gathered.

They all grace this space that I’ve lovingly created–

this home, this temple and inner sanctum of mine

that heads the pathway to my peace of mind.
