A shelter of spirit built with time

offers sweet haven, peace of mind

with fears the earthen floor is drenched

Cleansing years of neglectful stench

Envelopes of secrets kept

Also fall to be up swept

Hours and eons, weeks and years

Diamond value on wasted tears

Heart to spirit, hand to hand

Walking through love’s promised land

Woven together with bountiful mirth

Bound by cord of love’s rebirth
