Right then, this should be more about the time a posting will arrive of a weekday and if at all on a weekend (It's a weekend yo!) but maybe if you're lucky!
Following some handy feedback (cheers :) I've tweaked the layout a wee bit, hope it reads clear and easy!
Right back to it, not all of my work is sweetness and lite but it should contain mild degrees of hope, you've been warned:-
Sanctuary
I built this house.
These walls wrought strong,
Forged and fired the steely door,
Laboured hard, laboured long.
Provisions sourced,
Store more than norm,
For my need to survive,
The perceived storm.
Sensing clouds looming,
I look around at bare walls,
No time for comforts,
Before the storm calls.
I feel the wind coming,
I shall know light no more,
I board the windows,
Lock and prop the door.
I shrink to a corner,
Languid with fear,
I imagine laughter,
The storm draws near.
The door starts to thud,
I thought it secure,
Too late for now,
I have to endure.
Delirium encroaches,
I stand to rave,
Only to flinch back,
At the storms fresh wave.
I stare at the door,
I see it crack,
Transfixed with terror,
With insanity I laugh back.
'I am here for you'
The storm has voice,
Such power of nature,
Do I have choice?
Questioning my action,
I hear my name,
Great strength is plumbed,
This storm I will tame.
I kick away the prop,
I steel my belief,
Cast open the door,
To shock, to relief.
'Come outside',
Say friends of mine,
Of the land, barefoot,
'The weather out is fine'.
