Mind and Body In Sync

As the sun ends its journey at the end of day In my cozy little corner of the world When darkness rolls in and long shadows grow short Wide awake as the noon day, I become When sun flowers fall asleep among cool green grass Tiny fireflies light their torches Illuminating garden sanctuaries This is when I find, all tasks at hand, Seem less daunting and easier to tackle As the kitchen light’s turned off, My mental switch turns on In my bed, my favorite chair, or sometimes At the desk, I am free, relaxed, I travel destinations, far and near With no interferences, no traffic stops, I write Poems, lyrics, just random thoughts From deep within heart and mind While some end their toil at sun light’s fading And lie down bodies worn and weary My mind comes alive, free from distractions Mind and body are totally in sync
