This Is Home | A Nature-Inspired Poem

Take a moment to pause...
Return to the rhythms of the breath...
And notice that peacefulness naturally arises as the breath deepens.

This week's blog post is a gentle reminder that oftentimes, stillness and gratitude are all we need to feel at home — within ourselves and the world around us.

This is Home —
It's right beneath our feet.

May you be well,

Max

This is Home,

A nature-inspired poem by Max Christopher Comis.

Returning to the rhythms,

I fall asleep to the chorus of crickets,

And rise with the beauty of birdsong.

All is well here.

The trees reach upwards,

As tall and as beautiful as any cathedral.

I allow my tired mind to rest.

My eyes widen in curiosity.

I smile gently in awe.

Gratitude arises.

There is nowhere to run to,

No clock to punch,

Nothing to do.

My breathing deepens.

A thought flitters past.

This is peace.

This is Home.

This was beautiful and perfect for me as I’ve just traveled to my hometown to lay my dad to rest.
Peaceful and calming which gave me comfort.
Thank you 🙏🏻💕
