Prompt 8 – Music Track
Ready for Daytime
Sitting down on a park bench at dusk
He closes his eyes
Breathes in
Holds
breathes out
he repeats this three times.
His eyes still closed he
Fine tunes his ears to
Natures sounds,
He starts too feel the heat
From a rising sun,
He breathes in
Holds
Breathes out
He repeats this two times.
Outside the park
Traffic becomes noticeable
The town is slowly wakening
He breathes in
Holds
Breathes out
Opening his eyes
He greets the beautiful day
With a glaring smile,
Relaxed and calm
He gently rises
Orders his tea.
Now he’s ready,
Ready for the day
Try it sometime,
Indeed! I laughed at that closing line. I was IN this one all along – taking each one of those breaths along with the character in the poem. I could feel the warmth of the rising sun, feel the world awakening and amping up while the character is breathing and chilling. Nice rendition of meditation practice.
Thank you 😊
Aw I love this! It actually made me breathe as I read it! ❤️
Thank you 😊
