My Place Of Sanctuary (Kyrielle Sonnet tweeked)

My place of sanctuary 

Where I frequent at night

Away from all who fight

My sacred place to write

...beneath the cool moonlight

It's where I feel most free

In vocabulary 

When words flow from my pen

My heart it soars in flight 

I hope this will not end

Rhyme has become my friend

...beneath the cool moonlight

I linger for awhile

My place of sanctuary

It's often where I smile

...beneath the cool moonlight

my mind becomes fertile

Moments

Swinging... suspended in a dimension that we label as time 

I ponder my seconds, minutes, hours, days, nights, weeks, years; 

my working shifts, holidays and time that I've wasted on the mundane 

To a child, who truly experiences the joys of each moment... I wish to return

To splash in a reflective, cloud-filled silver puddle of forbidden fun 

To slide heedlessly down a helter skelter, in a sack, at supersonic speed

To blow iridescent bubbles of delight... such poppable propositions of awe

To be at one... happy... consumed within a moment 

Losing the need to divide my time into fake components
