Monastery
A monastery is a building or complex of buildings comprising the domestic quarters and workplaces of monastics, whether monks or nuns, and whether living in communities or alone (hermits). A monastery generally includes a place reserved for prayer which may be a chapel, church or temple, and may also serve as an oratory.
Monasteries vary greatly in size, comprising a small dwelling accommodating only a hermit, or in the case of communities anything from a single building housing only one senior and two or three junior monks or nuns, to vast complexes and estates housing tens or hundreds. A monastery complex typically comprises a number of buildings which include a church, dormitory, cloister, refectory, library, balneary and infirmary. Depending on the location, the monastic order and the occupation of its inhabitants, the complex may also include a wide range of buildings that facilitate self-sufficiency and service to the community. These may include a hospice, a school and a range of agricultural and manufacturing buildings such as a barn, a forge or a brewery.

Noone Here
by: Happy RhodesI feel warm and whole
But there's noone here
Yes, and mine's a heavy soul
But there's noone here
my is
Look rising
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And it's rising over there
But there's noone here
There's noone here
I'm without a body
To keep me warm
And not even a kitty
To share my storm
Well I know what I need
But there's noone here
And I know just where I bleed
But there's noone here `
my is
Look rising
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And it's rising over there
But there's noone here
There's noone here
And I'm without a body
To keep me warm
And not even a kitty
To share my storm
Well I want a warm brain
But there's noone here
'Cause mine's under a strain
And there's noone here
my is
Look rising
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And it's rising over there
But there's noone here
There's noone here
And I'm without a body ^ ^
To keep me warm * *
And not even a kitty + ^ ^
To share my storm * *
And not even a kitty
To share my storm
