Safe Harbor

Twilights Destiny by Arriere Pensee

You are my safe harbor, the one place where I can drop
Anchor and not be frightened by the wind nor terrified of
The dark and dangerous waves, the one place where I
Am protected and unconquerable, where the sea is
Forever calm and tranquil, where I need not have fear of
Anything nor anyone, where my soul is restful and at peace...
 

You are my lighthouse, shining your bright beacon of hope and
Understanding through the dark and treacherous night, guiding
Me to a quiescent refuge where I am sheltered from the storm
And bathed in a warm glow of peaceful equanimity, a place
Where my soul is free to take a spontaneous and uninhibited
Sojourn, secure in the knowledge that I am being watched over...

You are my moonlit bay, beauty incarnate, outshining even
The brightest stars that are reflected in the endless depths
Of your onyx eyes, you are the silvery ripples cast down from
Heaven to play upon the dancing swells of the gently restless
Ocean, my personal Calypso, guardian and watcher, forever
Vigilant and heedful, lest the demons of the deep start to rise...

You are my carefully charted shoreline where all the jagged
Rocks are mapped for my protection, where I need not fear
Shipwreck nor death amongst the jeopardous and craggy
Breakwater, you are my sextant, expertly aligned and true,
Forever leading me to this place of harmony and accord,
You are my anchor, holding me firm against any tempest...

You are my safe harbor, forever true, loyal, kind and caring,
A place I can retreat to, escape to, a place that resides deep
Within my heart and soul, untouched by all the vile and ugly
Rancor of the world, your love carries me upon the waves of
Life, steering me clear of dangers that seek to pull me down,
You are in essence my savior, and the answer to my prayers...


 

Public Service Announcement

I've updated the guidelines .

First, I've thought about the policy concerning the advertising of other writing communities here and I've decided that I will no longer accept them. I would like to encourage the discussions to take place here rather than have them drawn off to several other places. One of the main purposes of creating writers_loft was to have and promote writing related discussions here.

Second, Long posts, we haz them. Do not want. (Sorry, LolCat speak strikes again). All work will now go behind an lj-cut. You can post an intro to your piece but the work itself will go behind a cut. If you don't know how to do an lj-cut, ask for help and someone will show you how to create an lj-cut.

Here are the updated guidelines from the Profile page:

+In an effort to encourage writing discussions in this community I will no longer accept requests for adverts for other communities.
+All work must go behind an lj-cut. You may post snippets, scenes or a chapter of your original work in progress (WIP) but you MUST place them behind a cut (this includes poetry).
+Please use lj cuts for kindness. If you post long, stringy lines of poetry or any other long posts that are not hidden behind a cut I will ask you to place the long post behind a cut (I wish I could do it for you but I can't edit your posts for you). If the long post is not placed behind a cut after about 24 hours of me asking, I will delete your post. I hate to have to delete posts but long, uncut posts are not loved by many folks because they make people's Friends List's explode. That said, you are more than welcome to re-post the entry as long as you stash it behind an lj cut.

And Now For Something A Little More Fun...
