just breathe

river2

i close my eyes

to meditate

and i breathe…

just breathe

 

i’m floating

on a winding

lazy river

in a wooded

valley of

timelessness

 

and i breathe…

just breathe

 

occasionally i

catch a glimpse

of myself up

around a bend

i think to wave

but we both

know there is

peace of mind

to be had here

so we breathe…

just breathe

Cold-hearted Wind

 

A bold, cold-hearted wind

Slipped discreetly into town;

He was out to look for victims,

And he fast came swooping down,

But he ran into a snowdrift,

So curvaceous and fair,

That he caught her in his icy grip

And threw her in the air.

And ’round and ’round they whirled

In the closest kind of dance;

He had swept her off her feet

With his whirl-wind romance.

She hoped he’d never let her go,

She really thought he’d stay–

‘Til he dumped her on a rooftop,

Blew her off, and flew away.
