Body Break

Body Break

It’s like gathering the sounds
Away
Tucking your necessities into a
Car and escaping the hum
The buzz and chatter of
Electrically operated machines
And gadgets

Long enough to hear the
Pulse again
To remember and realize
Its humbling
Nurturing -
Effects on your soul

As you breathe in the crisp air
Right off the lake
Sense the elements piling
Themselves into your skin
In microbial bits of dust and ash

As you feel life flow into you
And mingle
With the fresh air and cold beer
You begin to reimagine
Your nature
Your place in nature
The natural place for you

In the vacation paradise
Of earth
Your destination for
Soul searching adventures
