To relax
To Relax
Completely
I put on brakes
Wipe out all meaning
Let space be my vehicle
Transparent, eyes closed awhile
Now eyes newly open to
serenity
Slow breathing
An inner world apart
A smile – in solitude I touch the world
Visions, apparitions, dreams
In space, weightless
The world touches me most gently
Keenly alert
Infinite wonderful possibilities
