Inhaling

joys sit light on me
as I watch
dark shadows
fade into oblivion
I rise above
petty squabbles,
viciousness

I cast a glance
at the rock
I left down there
missing it a little
and wondering
who will inherit it

thought energy dissipates,
does not disappear
we need to choose
the air we inhale
company we keep
to neutralize
toxicity

  1. great writing Reena πŸ™‚

    I particularly liked the 2nd stanza – the wording, is just wonderful … and adds such a dimension to this poem/reflection – fascinating interpretation of the image!
