Meditation

the body floats upward in relaxation

the arms stretch outward toward freedom

robes hang loosely, the head rests back

and music, like singing bowls,

spread their songs like a dream

a whisper of meditation forms a gentle fog

around the entire body, like an aura

so sweet a touch of healing lights

like so much water in a slow stream

lifting the emotions and the spirit

to rise for yet another day
