    Sanctuary

     There is a place I travel to
    at night within my dreams.
    There's a portal you can use
    which appears to open at the seams.
    Then you come across a meadow
    with deer and birds to spare,
    Where I dance among the animals
    with flowers in my hair.
    Alas I cannot stay for long
    it's not my place to be
    But I know that it's my lifelong,
    peaceful, sanctuary.

    Good use of imagery....I'm not usually one for fields and flowers but the short and to the point style of this poem was enough to let my eyes limp through....good job!

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
