Sit and Be Still

Sit and be still.
allow your breath to spill,
Forth from your lungs,
Like galaxies far flung.

Keep it simplistic,
Quiet, slow, and rhythmic.
Just let it be,
Your breath is free.

Natural and fluid,
Undiluted.
Flow in, flow out.
That’s what it’s all about.

The mind will wander.
Just bring it back from way out yonder,
Return to your respiration.
This is your inspiration.

Meditate and cultivate,
Your thoughts.
Be the change you want to see.
This is what will set you free.
