Let breath sweep so gently in out pressing shoulders down all let go from their station by the ears. Jaw hangs loose lips slightly parted while vertebrae may creak as tension flees before the tide of breath now in, now out count one now breathe, just breathe count two a rhythm we have lost in all our speed around our days in all our need for now we cannot ever say just wait a moment because in fifty years this won't be worth a hill of beans not so much as a breath of processed air and life is now inhale, exhale count three release hang loose and love the living of it.
Oh THANK YOU...what a gift.... your words inspire me daily....I don't always text you to tell you that...but I do read them and I so very much appreciate them THANK YOU

so gently
in out
pressing shoulders down
all let go from their station
by the ears.
Jaw hangs loose
lips slightly parted
while vertebrae may creak
as tension flees
before the tide of breath
now in, now out
count one
now breathe, just breathe
count two
a rhythm we have lost
in all our speed around our days
in all our need for now
we cannot ever say
just wait a moment
because in fifty years
this won't be worth
a hill of beans
not so much as a
breath of processed air
and life is now
inhale, exhale
count three
release
hang loose
and love
the living of it.
Have you had a hug today?
Now you have!
