There Is A Place

There is a place we go
To find closure from the cold.
It's a spot with no name
Because words are so lame.
Its doors lay wide open
Because the hinges are broken.
Its width adapts to every size
Every person's welcome inside.
There is a place I know
Where kindness has a home;
Its walls echo with laughter,
Abandon wades in its water.
There is a place for those
Who crave someone to hold.
Here there be no trespassers
And the gladness of joy pampers.
There is a place, after all
Where all that matters is love.
