Sheffield Cathedral - a photo on Flickriver

            Here we may rest upon a seat of oak within a hall of stone
and feel same the peace of mind as those through age had known
a place to seek your directions or just to rest a thought
a hope to hear a reasoned voice when answers here are sought
the windows light will cast away the shadows in your being
and lighten your soul as though a path ahead you now are seeing
this sanctuary where all can freely sit among a place of silent prayer
your mind imagining the gentle choirs as though now singing there
such sounds will echo within yourself and a peace within you see
and will this a given calm to your daily life and a stronger person be
at times it seem there is but moments for a prayer in this life of mine
and of that in this thought would wish the vision to be divine
for this a light must shine from outside to in
that all hope will be illuminated and belief begin
as by these gentle lights that fall on a masoned stone
that would to those of a thought will see a message shown
within such a lights warmth a certain calm will there be found
where within the walls of man's history and a  faith will abound
I now pause here as if lost to a dream asking why it is I pass this way
wondering only what the enlightened mind and my thoughts now say
would then such windows of saints hold all the answers then for me
or does this windows light serve merely to remind there is a better place i will see
