Inside Is My Mecca Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Inside is my mecca.
A peace that is complete!
Released is all conflict.
My mind is at ease.

Inside I find rainbows.
And cloudless blue sky.
I feel Sun rays beaming upon me.
I walk tall with pride,
Without surprise.

Inside is my love hold.
With strength that increases.
I show bliss reflected.
I am blessed to receive it.

Inside me are spirits.
Ancestors who live.
I am this gift given.
And treasured this is!

Inside I keep faith,
As a jewel I caress.
I nourish it to flourish.
And make each step...
Better placed,
Than the best steps I left!

Inside is my mecca.
A peace that is complete!
Released is all conflict.
My mind is at ease.

And as calm as a fresh breeze,
I am blessed to receive to breathe...
Before it leaves.
