Cheerful Abeyance

Benedryl for the heart
Sweet words of the Tao
Blackberry to make all succinct
Eloquent the text, twitter quiet rest
Poetry spells relief in the now

How many of us can wake up gracefully with a breath of new joyous time? Most start their wake with televised bait that startles their heart and mind.

As human beings poetry is needed for our heart heath. A starting verse in the morning, a stanza at night, a pep talk at noon is the poem. With all our meals, a vitamin of steel, it supports us from the gloom of the real. Poetry is as essential as the air. We cannot live without that beauty which balances us. It is an everyday practice bringing us back to soul and substance, summarizes happiness, solidifying peace, and stabilizes us with the wisdom to live well.
