She Let Go - A Poem Written By Safire Rose

This beautiful, inspiring and popular poem, written by Safire Rose, and presented to us by Estelle, encourages us to see how simple the act of letting go can be. Like a leaf falling from a tree, in silence and without fanfare, we can just let go of the memories that hold us back and the anxieties that prevent us from moving forward.

Transcript

She let go.

Without a thought or a word,

She let go.

She let go of the fear.

She let go of the judgments.

She let go of the confluence of opinions swarming around her head.

She let go of the committee of indecision within her.

She let go of all the right reasons,

Wholly and completely.

Without hesitation or worry,

She just let go.

She didn't ask anyone for advice.

She didn't read a book on how to let go.

She didn't search the scriptures.

She just let go.

She let go of all of the memories that held her back.

She let go of all of the anxiety that kept her from moving forward.

She let go of the planning and all of the calculations about how to do it just right.

She didn't promise to let go.

She didn't journal about it.

She didn't write the projected date in her day-timer.

She made no public announcement and put no ad in the paper.

She didn't check the weather report or read her daily horoscope.

She just let go.

She didn't analyze whether she should let go.

She didn't call her friends to discuss the matter.

She didn't do a five-step spiritual mind treatment.

She didn't call the prayer line.

She didn't utter one word.

She just let go.

No one was around when it happened.

There was no applause or congratulations.

No one thanked her or praised her.

No one noticed a thing.

Like a leaf falling from a tree,

She just let go.

There was no effort.

There was no struggle.

It wasn't good and it wasn't bad.

It was what it was.

And it is just that.

In the space of letting go,

She let it all be.

A small smile came over her face.

A light breeze blew through her and the sun and the moon shone forevermore.

This resonated deeply….clearly you’ve been following me in the shadows. And so…I shall Let Go. ✨

This is a beautiful prayer and your oration of it resonates within me.

So lovely. Like my grandmother reading me a story. Just what I needed.

I love your reading of this. It makes me smile and giggle every time I listen to it. I can identify with all of the ways Safire names for “preparation” instead of just letting go. ❤️ Thank you. 🙏
