Refuge- a poem

I turn and look behind me, and

I wonder where time’s gone.

Wasn’t it just yesterday

The road appeared so long?

TRAVELING down each turn and path,

I stopped along the way.

Fulfilling stages of my life

To bring me to today.

TO now—where I have found my place,

A refuge, if you will.

Where I embrace each given day-

With you beside me, still.
