Castle

Photo by Pixabay from Pexels

I built a fortress around myself

White great brick walls

It swelled as it trembled to new heights

Growing at my request

I sat on a blanket of dense grass

With the Son hugging my back

Picking dandelions

Secured

Guarded

Delicately protected

Not offered to the world

To be restored 

With self-worth

Another poem to read: Hold My Hand, Dear Lord
