To properly enjoy a good book of poetry, one must choose a comfy chair or perhaps a porch swing, have plenty of hot cocoa-or ice-cold lemonade, depending on the weather-at hand, and a supply of one's favorite cookies close by. When all of these prerequisites are met, it's time to settle in and enjoy the meanderings of another mind set to rhyme and either marvel at or empathize with the author.
Come and go with me to a special place
where there is only peace and oneness with God.
Come with me and find His amazing grace
in a place where many others have trod.
