Notes About The Poem

Stress Purging

Whenever my thoughts begin to gather dust
 And my stressed-out mind begins to slowly rust
 I'm inclined to purge it with guided meditation
 The calming effects refreshing. It begets elation



When a fourth line helps it to rhyme! Poetry Contest/Winner(1st Place)
