Quagmire, Quest, Quiescent Words Poetry Contest, Sponsor - Constance La France. Date written: 02/08/2024

The quest to inner peace and balance begins within... S e p a r a t e from negative intrusive thoughts. Be gentle with yourself. Withdraw from all external stimuli. Block out the background noise and focus on the sound of your breath. Count the chakras surging from your tippy toes to the top of your scalp. Release endorphins out of every pore. Breathe out of your system destructive feelings of anger, of fear, of anxiety; all toxic waste. Search deep inside for your individual happiness. Lose yourself in tranquility. Be in harmony with your surroundings. Be one with nature. Relax, just relax. Let out a liberating scream, scream away the stress.

Since i have retired from full time work it has been necessary for me to practice what your poem advises Edward, every day, and your words are true. When I first learned of them they weren't put to me nearly as eloquently as you have just displayed them. Not with the beautiful peaceful words or manner you have created, but the message was there and it works. Lets hope thousands read this . It is beautiful.
