10-9-8
Immersion

Liquid warmth welcomes you with open arms
Incrementally smoothing out life’s knot’s
Gently coaxing you into the calm
-relax
-let go
-trust

7-6-5
Surrender

Slow deep breaths from the center of your qi
I-n-h-a-l-e /E-x-h-a-l-e
Silently floating in a watery exchange of energies
-cleansing
-reviving
-imbuing

4-3-2
Cognizant

Eyes close and senses engaged
Listening to the sound of silence
Breathing the aroma of life
-initiation
-activation
-reignition

I really like the structure of this piece. I like the experimentation in it. I like the numbers, the single words in some lines, the downward movement, the ending of the culminating capitalization, and the little dashes that mark words with feeling and emphasis. Great job. This is going to be my poem pick for the week. 😎

It is really a sublime experience to be guided by the soft poetic voice that, from within, induces us to penetrate this exercise of relaxation and almost without realizing it, we put ourselves in control of that voice, breathing and elevating ourselves towards a full calm.
Excellent work, honey. A hug!
