Brainstorming the poem: My Sacred Place

Working Title: My Sacred Place

Sunday seems an appropriate day to begin writing this poem. The objects in my sacred place are (1) a string of 95 green prayer beads, (2) a Baha'i Prayer book, and (3) a nine-pointed star. The beads, which are clear, lay on a blond computer desk. The beads, the computer, and the modem are the only objects on top top of the desk. The beads rest on the desk between the computer monitor and the modem.

The prayer book is deep, dark red with gold letters and a gold flower on the over. The title of the prayer book is "Remembrance of God". This is a small, thick book, which contains both prayers and scripture readings. Attached to the book is a white, silk-like bookmark.

The nine-pointed star is a piece of purple string art resting on top of the fireplace. The fireplace, which is on the east side of the room, is white. The room is silent, calm and tranquil. (I am considering making this a form poem, but I have not decided on the form.)
