Every Breath

Every breath is a gift An opportunity to create A new possibility A new beginning A new way of being Awareness of breath Keeps me in awe and wonder At the spinning wheel of life To weave out the garment Filled with love, kindness, peace, Compassion, acceptance An indomitable faith And knowing That it is unfolding with every breath Why then must I wriggle In pain, in agony and cry? Why then do I question and desire to control? Why then do I allow my mind to bother Why do I not stay with breath? And weave the fabric Of love, kindness, peace Compassion Acceptance Each breath at a time Namaste Prerna
