The hush before the world takes flight is dressed in dew and softened light. No need to rush, No race to win. The day invites you to begin. A breath comes in, A breath goes wide, Like ocean pulling at the tide. No need to solve, No need to know, Just sit within the morning's glow. The thoughts may knock, Then drift away. They do not own the start of day. You are not late, You're not behind. You are the calm you've yet to find. The leaves don't ask the wind to stay, Yet still they dance, Then float away. And so, Too, Let your burdens fall. They are not required here at all. Feel your spine, A rooted tree, Strong and still, Yet breathing free. Your hands at rest, Your jaw released, This quiet is your inner feast. Each morning comes with skies unscrolled, A page untouched, A brush to hold. So paint this day with steady grace, No need to hurry into place. Begin again, The past is done, You're standing in the risen sun. This breath, This pause, This silent art, The whole world blooms from where you start.

Absolutely love this

This is beautiful and I love it! I have it bookmarked. The rhyming reminds me of some of the poems I’ve shared on Insight Timer and a little of Dr. Seuss, which is definitely a compliment. Thank you so much for sharing! 🙂

Outstanding! This really opens my mind with its own eyes. I will continue listening until I have everything in place.
