Float

Rather than muddling your brain with worry

spend your time clearing your energy field,

you know that aura that surrounds your body

like the halos around the heads of saints & holy ones 

depicted in paintings of ages past.

Clean it out with rain & sunshine & prayer

until you glisten in the soft light of the day

& walking outside & around your home & all the places you go

you spread peace & calm

& hummingbirds & cats & dogs & children delight in your presence

& all the troubled folks wandering the hallways & the streets

breathe a sigh of relief--

everyone just wants to feel understood,

open your heart,

get clean & empty,

& float with quiet joy.
