Meditation Time

Come now, it’s morning.
Meditation time.
Time for the swan
of exhalation
to settle on still waters,
deep belly waters
that were here
before
the earth was made.

Time to awaken the clear
blue sky
in your chest
where the sun neither
rises nor sets,
because you are the sun.
You illuminate the world.
Isn't it a perfect morning
to go nowhere

breath by breath

down this winding
forest way,

letting your feet perform
a miracle of healing
with every step?
Don't take a walk,
give one.
