Tumult

Childhood was tumultuous
A roller coaster ride
Books became my hiding place
A distraction where I could hide
Education led me to you
And in your arms I found
A safe haven and a resting place
Protection all around
Childhood was tumultuous
A roller coaster ride
Books became my hiding place
A distraction where I could hide
Education led me to you
And in your arms I found
A safe haven and a resting place
Protection all around
I am a child of the universe, poet, philosopher and idealist and teacher.
