Namaste

A poem I wrote after an amazing yoga session

Detach from the pressures of minute upon minute
Connect with the night and the spirit within it
Relax my breathing and feel my heart beat
Become one with my body from head to feet

Move to the sound of rhythm and notes
As relaxation consumes from fingers to toes
Calming sounds erase the hurt from before
Instilling me with strength renewing my core

I twist and contort, keeping my mind clear
I embrace the positions and ignore any fear
With each new skill happiness fills my brain
With each new movement I remove outside pain

Rested and relaxed, giving thanks for the day
Allowing our minds to become still and meditate
Our bodies content after pushing our ability
The twilight surrounding invoking tranquility
