										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The journey seems endless,<br>
I feel groggy and tired,<br>
Wilting away with all the miles.</p>



<p>My sleepy eyes recover,<br>
I fix my gaze,<br>
Twinkling stars beacon,<br>
Lights overhead blaze.</p>



<p>I’m nearly home now,<br>
Majestic and calm,<br>
The church is alight, a beacon,<br>
Guiding me into the night.</p>



<p>Welcome!<br>
Visitors and its children alike,<br>
Rest is a promise one can surely rely,<br>
A magnetism draws me,<br>
The warmth prevails,<br>
Invisible rays guide me<br>
To my port,<br>
Curing my ails.</p>



<p>Here the abundance of nature reigns,<br>
Life’s fuel <br>
Is a gift, <br>
To enjoy.</p>



<p>Home for a while,<br> To rest and be free,<br> Here is my anchor <br> Greeting me.</p>



<p class="has-text-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color">This poem-records the view of St Michaels Church which is on North Hill where we lived in Minehead and is depicted below in Melody&#8217;s painting, the church is the blue building in the centre of the hill .  Melody has several stories of the church, one is of using the powerful floodlights to roast apples.</p>
