Inhale...
Slowly bring the arms above the head -
Exhale...
Cleanse thoughts of all stress, hate and dread.
Inhale...
Lower arms and feel the blood pulse fresh.
Exhale...
Breathe out negative to purify the flesh.
Inhale...
Eyes shut tight against the world, I breathe -
Exhale...
Caring not that their ignorance makes me seethe...
Inhale...
My minds eye sees the ocean breathe alongside me.
Exhale...
Feel the world at one, and tranquil soul is free...

Word prompt by Purush
"Will Power"
Second Poem:
Picture Prompted
Empowered
Draw the power of the earth
within my very bones...
power surging through my viens,
and I am tranquil all the same.
I feel it rise through my bones
and blood, before
surmounting in my head.
The power nearly drags me,
but I am not so simply lead...
Taking deep breaths;
Inhale...
Exhale...
I harness all this energy,
and prepare,
for I could split the ocean
should I so desire.
