A Sanctuary

"Don't tell me that the sky's the limit when there's a footprint on the moon!" That quote makes me smile for one wonderful reason more than anything... but it's a sacred reason so I'll leave it at that! It's written on the wall of a glass sanctuary in letters that can only be seen from the inside. The place holds a handful of private moments. You can look through the glass walls and see them glisten in the light; The kind of light that bends like it's shining underwater... somewhere in the depths of fathoms unexplored. Unwritten music notes are combined in a way that few have heard before. The combination of colors creates hypnotic images that capture and won't let go. Promises are made there too that no one can hear so they can't be broken. But just in case the sanctuary is intruded upon and things go awry, the pieces have agreed to put themselves back together, stronger and more brilliant than before they were impacted. Wild and passionate ideas are growing in the safety of the velvet red grass that can only exist in such a peaceful place. Fairytales are written in an invisible ink that only certain eyes can see and they have to know what to listen for in order to read the story. The fabulous characters come to life in laughter and the glass encasing fogs up with their breath. And the viewer (or in this case, reader) is left wondering, what is really going on in that enchanted, wonderful place encased in glass?
