My Special Place

From early in the morning to late at night my kitchen is my special place. 1

This is the place I come into each morning to begin my day. 2

To enjoy the quite and a refreshing hot cup of tea. 3

Pulling back the curtain, letting up the shade, to invite the raising of the sun into my special place, the kitchen.4

Looking out over the panoramic view, upon mother nature artistic beauty, which array the view from my kitchen window. 5

The shimmer of the sun as it raise and pass through the leaves of the trees. 6

A squirrel running along the fence top, birds flying carefree, gliding through the air back and forth, landing on the arbutus shrubs next door. 7

Occasionally, you may see a wild rabbit scamper over the grassy field.8

If you are lucky, from my special place, this bring a peace as you sit and take in the beauty of god’s wonder. 9

All the things He has made and provided for us to behold. 10

Giving thanks, looking forward once again to come back into devotion. 11

Yet, knowing I must leave my special place, go off to a busy day of work. 12

After work, I come back home and prepare a good and hearty home cooked meal in my kitchen. 13

After dinner , I clean up the dishes and make space in in the kitchen to study my lesson. 14

Relax and prepare for the next day, rather than worry about life little problems, that sometimes can become overwhelming . 15

I escape to my special place, to think and make clear decisions in my kitchen. 16

Author notes

I had to write a poem about a place special to me for school this week. I am in no way good at writing poems but i think this turned out pretty good.

    Descriptive and evocative, syntax is not a factor, the words are felt beyond being read. Peace of mind is conveyed really well, makes me wish I had that inner peace that you write of......with a cup of tea.

    "To enjoy the quite and a refreshing hot cup of tea." It should be "quiet" .

     It did come along really well though,  shows how little things and places can be very special even though they seem common, and like nothing. ^.^You did well. I wouldn't even be able to make a poem about any special place, or thing... :/

    Line 3 'quiet.'
    'The shimmer of the sun,' a very evocative image.
    I loved the centring of the poem. Always coming back to the quiet serenity of the kitchen, framed with nature and the natural goodness of God's world.
    Made me smile, and off I go to another day of work.
    Thanks Ms Dede, nice one.

    Yep, it did turn out pretty good! There are a few mistakes here and there, but who am I to say (I make them too many myself).
    It's such a sweet proselike poem, I could all but feel that worm sun coming through the windows. Needless to say, kitchen is my special place too
