Sitting in a Quiet Chapel

1. Sitting in a quiet chapel 
peacefully at noon,
thoughts like very lovely flowers, 
soon began to bloom.
My heart was filled with sunshine studded boats, 
that sailed by,
while cheerful colored SONGBIRDS 
happily flew through the sky

2. A PICNIC table sitting on a hill, 
above the lake,
was set with tablecloth and dishes, 
sandwiches and cake.
Delightful friends enjoyed their meal, 
all chatting as they ate,
with sunshine and blue skies reflecting
on them from the lake.
My thoughts then shifted to 
a cozy neighborhood of homes,
where the contented dwellers 
seldom found the need to roam.

3. The HOUSES were so colorful, 
all painted various shades,
with charming flower gardens 
at which people loved to gaze.
Driving down the winding streets 
was picturesque and fun,
and was a favorite pastime, 
after work and chores were done.

4. My thoughts then drifted 
to some peaceful, cozy starlit nights,
where crackling fires in a hearth, 
put every care to flight.
Anyone outside that might be 
strolling by could see
the warming FIRE flickering
and glowing tranquilly.
Soon when my awareness 
had resumed its state of prayer,
I sat in gratitude 
before the tabernacle there. 

5. I thanked God for 
the very special visit of His love,
and all the grace and blessings 
that He showers from above.
He reaffirmed to me, 
whenever peace I wish to find,
to nurture lovely thoughts, like FLOWERS, 
deep within my mind.
