A Picture of the Temple

By Shari Pingel

A picture of the temple

Hangs upon my wall.

I see it from my bed,

And I see it from the hall.

It makes me feel so peaceful;

Sometimes I sit and stare

And try hard to imagine

That I am standing there.

This picture of the temple

That hangs so I can see

Helps me to remember

The things that I can be.
