Oasis

There is a sanctuary, secluded,
where the travelling ceases
and the clamour of life will hush,
a retreat that shines
with memories painted like frescoes
and fine silks of pastel colours
soothe the eye,
rest a while, time displaced,
then travel on
returning often.

That is simply beautiful. I'm glad I'm back reading true poetry such as this.

Your friend,
John.

A haven for the sojourner and the nomadic heart of the poet. TFS.

You describe serenity with a marvellous touch. Now I wonder where I put the map...
Thanks, Nick
