The Spirit of Breathing

 

The sky is dark and the rains are on the wind.

Such a breath feels electric, metallic in taste.

The summer sun ripens  its fruit as the wheat stands tall in the field.

Such a breath feels warm and full.

The newness of Spring is just around the corner.

Winter dew falling from each flower precisely when it means to.

Such a breath gives a gift of new life and rejuvenation.

The breath of the Spirit harkens to us all, the knowing of breathing

in life is what brings about living.

With Love, Rochelle

The lungs fill with air, buoyant the body rises above the water.

Flight is imminent but still beyond the wingtips.

Breath out.

As the breath leaves the body it sinks below the water.

Cocooned in its fluid body.

Breathe in.

Again rise.

Breathe out.

Again sink.

Such as the rhythm of life; Breathe is life.

Be at one with the water.

Seek not its rise of waves, melt into its depths. Flowing as the river seeking even deeper earth.

Be not the first to arrive, crashing against the stone wall.

Instead rest upon its lower currents and settle last at the door of Heaven.
