Stairway to haven


 Stairway to haven

Johnclarestokes 


There are stairways in my mind I climb

Places I can yet go time after time

Where once inside I can for a spell reside

By the familiar comfort of place abide

Draw again upon the lessons learned

Give pause to the incessant worldly yearn

Align for the time with the sweet repast

Taste the savory preserves that last

Hear the creaking steps upon heart pine 

Know forever this haven I shall find.


Luther Ray climbs the steps at Pilgrims Rest

And today is his brothers birthday who

yesterday climbed those steps
