Sanctuary

My backyard is quickly becoming a sanctuary for me. It’s so peaceful and quiet, and I’m so happy there. Today I sat in the covered swing surrounded by daffodils and purple azaleas while the cherry blossoms floated in the breeze like pink snow. Birds chirped and darted back and forth from the feeders, while Buddy contently lay nearby in a little patch of sunshine chewing his bright orange ball. For that short while, it was truly a little piece of heaven on earth.
