Reggae Magnet Poet Free verse

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

Linda Alice Fowler September 3, 2020 at 5:55 AM 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.

Caren Krutsinger July 18, 2020 at 2:11 AM 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. Reggae Magnet July 22, 2020 at 5:29 PM You are welcomed Caren, we just have to learn to take some time out and recharge the mind.
