Much thanks to Dagmara and her team for publishing my fourteenth poem at Spillwords, totally appreciate their ongoing support!
Sacred Space
contemplation is a way of life
keeps self-pity from causing strife
sit and watch my thoughts like clouds
or stride out with awareness of all about
some prefer to garden, read or dance
whatever allows your mind to unwind
to let go of the bubbling busyness
that constantly drains our energy
sacred space to top up
restore and refresh
enables better coping skills
to deal with life and all it behest
take a moment in the bathroom
or the garden, stopped at traffic lights
nurture your respite moments
…… read the remainder on Spillwords and leave a heart if it pleases, thanks!
aroused 
i love this… giving you lots of hearts there..
