Respite

A poem by Gretchen L.

It’s a place to come where you slow down the pace

To just reflect and feel the grace.

All possible because of a wonderful man

Who took the challenge and said “yes, I can.”

A place to relax and just destress

A place to call my Haven Of Rest.

I think you would agree

There is no place like it.

A place I call My Special Respite

So come enjoy the beauty, serenity, and love

And give glory to the one above

For it’s His inspiration and direction you see

That offers this respite to you and me

A place you’ll always cherish in your heart

A place that sets all others apart

So to God Be The Glory is what I pray

‘Til once again I’m blessed to come this way.
