Breathe

The air whipped across
my face and said,
'breathe me'

And I did...
deeply.

Invisible life support,
on me,
in me,
around me.

And the air made friends,
with my heartbeat,
and the beat,
learned about Love.

Then the Love
embraced other emotions,
and my entire being,
came to life.

Feeling,
became as simple as,
a deep breath.

Inhale love
Exhale fear

Breathe Breathe

"Always remember to slow down in life; live, breathe, and learn; take a look around you whenever you have time and never forget everything and every person that has the least place within your heart.”

    Sandy, I REALLY like this piece. It differs from other pieces I've read of yours, but has the same "aroma"

    The flow is flawless, and the meaning clear as crystal. Not sure how I missed this one before, but I'm happy to have read it now!

    Love you tons!!!

    I hope you know how metaphorical these lines are;

    "Invisible life support,
    on me,
    in me,
    around me."


    Wonderful, and essential that we learn to take our time, and breathe the breath of life to its fullest.

    Congratulations on earning the Emerald Cup!


    Much Love ♥

    SO GENTLE AND BEAUTIFUL!!!

    It is indeed a special feeling when we slow down and take a long look around us and see so much beauty which in turn reaches into our hearts and takes all of the stress and sorrows away.
