“Trillium” was a place set apart,
A place of refreshing for spirit and heart,
A hidden oasis, a breath of fresh air
Where spirit and soul could find sweet repair.
With wellsprings of water, flowing year round,
The refreshing of God was truly profound.
Cooling was there in the soft summer breeze,
Heard in the winds brushing tops of tall trees...
Restoring the soul, healing the heart,
The refreshing of God to sweetly impart,
Escape from the rush of everyday life...
A place of sweet quietness, free from all strife.
"And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
Philippians 4:7 KJV
(Note:) "Trillium" was a property out in the country which my parents owned. My father built a cabin there, and our family spent many restful weekends there. We named it "Trillium" because every year the property was covered with wild Trillium flowers.
