Sanctuary

In modern frenzied society,
we go to great lengths
to find Sanctuary.
We head there
on vacation,
or imagine being there
in the quiet spaces
of our minds.
The real task is
to find
and create sanctuary,
in ourselves and
in the beloved spaces
around us.
Sanctuary is
right here,
right now.
I need not travel far at all,
because I have already arrived.
