Just Relax

When the day is done And you are at ease Just recharge your mind Do as you please Just relax Your heart is pounding From a fast paced track Slow the pace down Just relax From the helter skelter living To the treadmill pounding There is no sense at all If you cannot rest for a while Take some time out and discern So vigour is reborn Sit down, lie down, float around But always try, to just relax Just relax from the strains that rides us From the tedium of life which irks us From the sorcerers who torment us From The Strawman who represent us Don't worry at all Things will change Keep your countenance Let it shine Feel the joy, that's inside Do good, so it may comfort your soul Sing praises, let your blessings unfold Your heart is pounding Beating your chest You are under constant scrutiny You are under constant duress Recharge your aura Be blessed Put aside your burden And just relax Live your life With no regrets Ignite your passions Seek a redress So what was hidden from your sight Becomes the new dawning Becomes the new Light Look upon the clouds Watch the trees Watch their growth Watch the animals as they frolic Over the glens and down the crevice Watch the trees planted tall Watch the plants, clinging to the wall And with purpose, they survive When I think of the wonders I then realize Take some time out to be amazed Take some time out to laze For of all the things that keeps us on the track Never forget your blessing When you just relax

I'm reminded of the line from the movie 'Demo Man': "Enhance your calm." This poem emphasizes the need to step back, take a deep breath, and just relax. I quite enjoyed it Reggae.

Relax is what we try to teach with meditation, mindfulness, zen rooms, breathe rooms, and prayer. Why others do not understand is beyond my comprehension. This poem is a marvelous message; I hope it can relate the importance of relaxing to thousands of others Reggae. Thank you for this one.
