April 25 – The Need for Solitude

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Need for Solitude

Sometimes you need a break.

From the news,

From all the greedy,

From the power hungry,

From the predators.

From being battered by a cruel and angry world.

         …. angry at itself for what its done.

Sometimes you need to fade

Into a place of peace

Into some retreat 

Into which a quieting comes

Into the wanderer’s soul

Into the world that He once made 

         …. better than it’s since become.
