Take a deep breath
Let yourself relax
Close your eyes
Come with me
Inhale
Exhale
Let me guide you
I’ll take you on a magical journey
Give in to the moment
Relax
Breathe
Close your eyes
You’re there
You’re there
You’re outside the Taj Mahal
A full moon bathes it in a silver glow
It’s serene
Take all the time you want
Enjoy the scene
There’s no need to hurry
Inhale
Exhale
You’re tired
Winding down
It’s after hours
And no one is around
The stress of your day
Is the coat you take off
One sleeve at a time
Let it drop to your feet
Feel the freedom
Of the weight off your shoulders
Take a deep breath
You’re at the main entrance
You’re calm
Slowly slip off
Each shoe one at a time
Take a deep breath
Listen
It’s just you and the echo of stillness
It’s majestic with the high ceilings
And luscious marble all around you
Listen
Feel the resounding silence
It’s charming and inviting
It’s calling you from within
Go ahead
Follow where it leads
Enter as the richness
Of the silence envelops you
It’s a droning melody
That feels peaceful and safe
Soothing
Beckoning
You feel light
You feel transported
Your feet barely touch the floor
Inhale
Exhale
Stay as long as you like
You’re exactly
Where you need to be
Relax
Take it all in
When you’re ready to leave
Have one last listen
To the melody of silence
Step over your shoes and coat
You might as well
Leave them behind
You don’t need them
Treasure this peacefulness you feel
You’ve earned it
Let it lead the way
To a relaxing evening
Where sleep will sway you
Between the realms
Of fantasy and reality
Breathe
Relax
And enjoy your evening

Where You Are
I see suspicion in your eyes, you know I know you're going through hell.
You think I'm like the others, and there's people I'll run and tell.
It's not to say I'm better. In a million years I won't do that.
You need not wonder “Am I lying?” I've been right where you're at.
Your friends and even family swear nothings going on.
Making you feel more alone when you know that something's wrong.
They don't stop and laugh and joke or pass the time away.
If you met them in the kitchen they wouldn't have too much to say.
You search your soul for answers, you don't know what to do.
Lost in the betrayal, that they call helping you.
Your heart breaks as your hand shakes you feel vibes that they aren't sending.
Or is it true? They lie to you and then go on pretending.
If only one of them in love that's known you from your youth.
Could bring themselves to come to you and talk to you in truth.
I may not be the one you need I'm not your father or your mother.
I'm not a friend of your best friend or your sister or your brother.
But I'm better than to think so low that you don't realize.
An honest open act of love will not hide behind ones lies.
So if there's something you need to say but you're consumed with doubt.
I may be the best you got, now's your chance to let it out.
Or maybe you don't want to talk and even you aren't quite sure why.
There ain't one soul I'm going to tell if you hang your head and cry.
We all sometime have lost our way, our lives just slip off track.
I'm not here to judge you. I'm here to help you back.
I won't burden you with my story or tell you about my fall.
But I'll warn you now before you start, there is One that I tell all.
There's no secrets to keep hidden and there's nothing I won't share.
When I drop to my knees tonight to lift you up in prayer.
Asking God to send you angels and to help you to endure.
As you walk through this fire that's meant to make you pure.
Life sometimes can be so cruel in this world we all live in.
Except for Him I'll tell no one cause where you are, I've been.
Edwin C Hofert
On lonely paths I often roam
Through meadows and over hills
Like a gypsy cloud 'neath a blue sky dome
And through a field of countless daffodils
I stop to watch this field of gold
As they sway lithely in the breeze
Then I move on as new paths unfold
Heading home through a maze of trees
And in quite moments my thoughts would drift
To that resplendent field of daffodils
To my weary soul they give a lift
This treasure trove of golden thrills
Those daffodils in my mind do gleam
As I slip off in a cloud of dreams
Contest: Prose vs Poetry and the classics
Rewrite of William Wordsworth poem: - "I Wandered Lonely as a cloud"
I slipped off my body to fly in another realm.
The cold clay awaiting my return lay upon the bed;
a lump of the elements.
The places I went, the deeds that I saw;
no one had a clue of my attendance.
Deeds good and bad I witnessed;
recorded in mind for later review.
Quantum slides in and out; from one universe to another;
Recorded on electric sparks to, be replayed over again.
Cosmic movies to be viewed by,
mortal mind and spiritual eyes.
How I hate re-dressing;
the physical form leaves nearly everything to be desired.
Even with the movies playing;
the event is too uncomfortable;
the entertainment; bittersweet.
Body clothing is painful; Irritating to wear;
confining to the soul and mortally devastating.
It is pain; agony that no movie can depict;
it distracts the mind.
And so,
I slip off my physical suit to live for awhile each night;
as lump sleeps;
I live.
Adagio Delight
Let's saunter slowly, into this sultry, star-blessed night.
Glimmering candle, on a fresh, white tablecloth, new.
We must have that daunting, Pacific Ocean view.
Oh, to dine is heaven with the man I so love.
As a rainbowed blessing from above!
I slip off my woven sandals, you do, too!
Our tanned feet sensually caressing.
Whilst we eat chicken, Cordon Bleu.
Mon. Dieux!
But, I, famished for your body, to be close to you.
My flaming addiction, which has no end.
That immortal discovering one June night,
We were far more than just good friends!
Most fiery, primive passions blossomed.
In our own, unique, personal love-fashions!
Come, let's discover love's force-field.
That continent and soul of each other.
In summers' star kissed moonlight!
Our homage to a lovers', Adagio Delight!

To The Brink For The Ink Crack Like Fissures
Another page scarred with ink. Upon her page, I see red ink
branded by the thoughts I think. Tattooed thoughts, that make me think
My mind imprisoned, feel the burn, Within intricate patterns, my heart it learns
past the point of no return. As I slip off her ledge, my spirit churns
Faces bob like buoys in an ocean, For her mind, it is an ocean
I'm sea sick to societies motion. I'm lost upon, her wave like motion
Clutter intoxicates my brain, Intoxication, it fills my brain
filling me with failure and pain. Strange impressions, as I view her pain
Forcing sleep deprivation muse, bubbling from my mind, feelings break loose
cigarette, pot and coffee abuse. I'm transported back, to my own abuse
Five A.M. and the pressure is strong Crack like fissures, emotions strong
to make these words move along. I feel I've known her all along
My audience awaits but I'm still She grants me audience, within places still
writing rhymes against my will. Her rhymes resonate, until I bow to her will
Blocked by need I'm suffocated, lungs filled fully, never suffocated
my joy becomes what I've hated. She’s one transcended, not filled with hatred
I can't escape the vines I've grown, a climbing flower, I've see how she's grown
notebook prison, I cry alone. With her notebook open, she's never alone
All this angst and misery, She transcends angst and misery
all for the love of writing poetry. Within her glowing landscape of poetry

Dedicated to the Artistry of Casarah Nance
Form:
As the current year is quickly ticking away
The time has come for me to share,
My resolutions for the coming year:
What all steps I shall take in life to fare.
Every new year is a time to start anew
With thankfulness for what has been
A time to introspect and correct the follies
And come out of every trace of murkiness, mean
As before, I will not skulk or hide in corners dark
But shall venture out into the wider world
Meet people and strengthen my ties
Mixing and mingling with the gregarious crowd
Wish to be a welcome presence wherever I go
Try to give some cheer to all those I meet
Love God with all my heart and sing praises to Him
Through love, all bitterness I hope to defeat
I shall secure a firm ground to stand erect
So that I will not be carried away by the currents
Share my bounty and carry out random acts of kindness
For those who drown in life’s fierce torrents
I shall try to smile and laugh more often
Snatch, seize and savor every little chance
To enjoy, for grains of sand will slip off the hourglass.
With age, lesser are the prospects in life to advance.
Life cannot always be smooth as we wish it to be
Still, I shall carry my burdens as best as I can
Will not recite the litany of my stinging woes
Let go grudges, forgive, and face life with more elan
Resolve to be more positive when life seems hopeless.
With challenges rife, when no longer I can bear the load,
I shall tenaciously hang on and clutch at the fraying rope.
Proceed ahead hoping to see a light at the end of the road

Resolutions for 2022 Poetry Contest
Sponsor- Anoucheka Gangabissoon
I must confess, I've undressed you, in my mind
Even made love, while thinking of you
The halo you wear round your finger
Ties the binds that I can't undo
He holds your hand
While I want your heart
Our souls feel alone
When we're apart
If loving you's wrong
Why does it feel so right
Slip off your halo tonight
I'm a man who tries to live by the right hand
But temptation, may cause me to burn
My angel's been taken by another
And I'm not sure, which way to turn
My conscious is guilty
Each I love you a ruse
Cause I know they should all be
Directed towards you
Shall we head on a journey
Where we turn out the lights
Slip off your halo tonight
My love, my lust, my want and my trust
All sit here waiting to prove
We've lost a lot of our past
It's time that we can't get back
So slip off your halo tonight
Did you think of me, when you said I do
The same way that I, imagined it's you
We both know how we're living
Maybe someday we might
Slip off our halos tonight
Let's slip, off our halos tonight...
Oh... sorry, this was supposed to be a positive message...
I can't see very good through all these dark clouds,
veils of lies,
all being exhaled
by the faceless (shadows),
and sewn together
(because hand made is always better)
by pointed tongued succubi and incubi,
But for a moment I did see a tiny bit of light poke through, so small,
but I saw it.
But, none for me...
I chose the dark a long, long time ago... It was safer there.
If I was going to always be running into demons
I figured I had better-become friends with them.
Eventually, they became better friends than the so-called "Angels".
(Right, Left, Up, Down)
Two-faced hypocrites with all their lies of "Unconditional Love". Blegh...
I think they need to go read what unconditional means...
I've only known conditional...
From girlfriends to friends, to family.
Slip off the path (their path) and get written off just as quickly.
Nope, no second chances, pretty much no chances at all.
One time, that's all you get.
Now, go... Don't make any mistakes, and don't stress about it.
Forgiveness feels like a lonely dance
What to do when drama’s veils go down
Hands must be dropped in repentance
To be free, only I can slip off this gown
Unforgiven I acted as an unimpeachable
I wore out the hands of others justified
Without palms, forgiveness is reachable
Empty scarlet letters is tossed aside
Forgiveness grants a place uninhabited
Two steps back, the next step is always new
By the grace of God I’m deemed talented
He turns the fullness of shame into dew
Forgiveness is a seed receiving the light
I resist trusting soil, water, and sun
The empty space above is where it’s right
Hiding dormant, nowhere for me to outrun
Forgiveness feels rawer than useless raging
No more a martyr's dance, just pure suffering

Luke 23:34
Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up his clothes by casting lots
