When I close my eyes
When I close my eyes,
Such inner beauty I see,
Such lush meadows,
Mother Earth all around me,
Standing in a field,
Feeling such inner peace,
These feelings are ones I want to hold onto,
Though I know that will be very hard to do,
I see so much green around me,
I feel each blade of grass in between my toes,
As I stand bare footed and feel so free,
The sun shining down on me,
The feelings of being at one,
As I look all around,
And have everything in nature surrounding me,
Now this really is what you call inner peace,
I don’t sense any worries or stresses,
It’s like right now they have decided to bypass,
If only I could keep these feelings of such inner bliss!
The weight I feel no longer is there,
The only way I can describe it…
Is like it’s disappeared into thin air,
Maybe I should close my eyes more often,
To see what I am experiencing right now,
I won’t question it; I will just keep going with it.
Namaste Selfexpessive.

When you close your eyes...that is you, it is your beauty that you are experiencing. It is overwhelming more beautiful than anything you have every seen before, isn't it? That's you, my dear, the Lord let you see...YOU.
BLESSINGS & LOVE,
Doris

To feel the inner peace is like getting a gift you really needed. To be able to relax fully is so important but there's so few that manages. And I am so happy to hear that you will follow my advice on closing your eyes and just drift away.
Thanks for taking the time to enter and best of luck.
