Poetry | Quieting the mind

Feel the Feeling

Then letting it go

Sit quietly,
but for a moment.
Close your eyes,
all you see.

Quiet the mind,
and the 10,000 things.
Enter the feeling,
present moment.

Can you let it go?

Breathe in,
breathe out.

What comes forth,
visionary influx.
Feel this feeling,
present moment.

Can you let it go?

Imagine blissful,
scenery,
a favorite of the sort.

Can you let it go?

Pain,
suffering,
destructive realities.

Breathe in,
breathe Out.

Can you let it go?

With every thought,
feeling presents.

Can you let it go?

Joy,
bliss,
ecstasy.
Feel the feeling,
be present.

Can you let it go?

All things,
of matter and inanimate.
Exist in the mind,
materialized reality.

Can you let it go?

~Ani Po

Much gratitude for those who take time to read, ponder, and allow the inner workings of self to come forward. Grateful for the feedback, love shared, and, more importantly, the Dance with Inspiration. Deep Peace.
