I'm thinking about writing this new format. But I'm interested in your opinions. I'm interested in knowing what you felt. An emoji is enough.

resting after a long day.
my body unwinds,
every tension released.
each muscle
breathes on its own
and lets go
of what it carried.

—deep breath—
only relief dwells in my chest,
all the weight fades away.
and I begin to imagine
my body
sinking into relaxation,
ready to travel.
each time I breathe deeply
I rise higher and higher.
I start to float,
detaching from the earth,
slipping out the window.

I can see
each house on my street,
each road,
a square with children playing.
the gardens smile at me,
the trees
greet me gently.
I can feel the breeze
on my face,
a soft perfume of jasmine.
a fullness blooms
inside my chest.

—deep breath—
I reach the birds,
they dance all around me.
blackbirds and magpies
sing their serenade.
I can touch the softness of the clouds,
a velvet cloth
that shapes itself into figures,
playing among the skies.

—deep breath again—
I rise higher and higher.
I see the sun
slip into the horizon,
giving way for the moon to appear.
it comes out shyly,
with tender clumsiness,
lifting itself
as every night does.

some birds hide in their nests,
wishing goodnight
to the neighbors in the same tree.
others begin
their nightly journey.
houses light up slowly,
a few in the west,
a few in the east.
the whole world seems like a sphere
decorated for Christmas.

—deep breath fills my lungs with clear air—
darkness falls,
yet everything glows.
young stars emerge
above my forehead.
the sun’s reflection
makes each particle
of the universe sparkle.
some comets gallop far away,
unhurried,
as if not to disturb.

silence expands,
deep and eternal.
I feel a vast peace,
floating in the void of space.
nothing touches my body,
yet I am held.

Jupiter dazzles me
with its crimson stains
over a reddish sea.
Saturn shows its rings,
spinning, twirling,
a ballerina
with a wide flowing skirt.

—inhaling, exhaling—
with every breath
I sink deeper into calm.
my body softens,
relaxation reaches every part.
no worries,
no problems,
only silence and stillness,
stillness and silence.

—deep breath—
I return to the planet earth,
to that neighborhood,
to my home,
to my body,
to my life.
but lighter now,
in harmony,
more whole,
with deeper well-being.

Be inspired by many things
but don't get caught by wanting
and wanting to be
everything.

L.C.

I lose
This feeling that I build
Gone in a mess
Trying to swim with the flow
Yet I drown unknowingly
Wish the future could give some hint
This nonsense scenario can be edited
Either I stop here or keep swimming

A cigarette in hand,
I sit back in my chair.

The sun pours down
like a waterfall.

A dog ahead,
Lies down on it's back -
Like a turtle on it's shell

He's laying down,
Joyous and gay,
thinking to himself:
"Gosh, what a beautiful day"

A breeze flows by
to remind us all:
that the cold days gone,
And all that remains
is the waterfall.

I recline back,
and take a long drag,
And I tell myself:
"Gosh, what a beautiful day"

Guarded by the movement all around me
I sleep under the sun in the breeze
My body on small stones on the beach, not yet aching,
Relaxing and embracing the unknown.

Ducks walking along the river bank,
Exploring,
As boats and kanus move past the shore
Where I rest on this peaceful afternoon,

Welcomed by the movement all around me.

Sleepy.....       I'm.... a
tired, type. The hype of life
reminder....     right?

Fired, if i don't wake....      on time.
But I.....   I don't deal...
                                                   with stress.....      and strife.

A broker in knives, for slicing ice.
It melts much faster
in little bites.

Lead me on this frightening
path of lightening
in a world that's getting faster
on a journey to disaster
without permission of the master
the plan will fracture.

We ourselves invite to rapture
and the laughter of the one thereafter
as we still ignore the lesson
on our mission of compression
turning days into seconds.

I relax, because I care
not because I care not.
The day is long and life is patient
Be the ball and chain of nations.

There’s a corner of eternity
where I’ve built a simple home.
A place that I can go to
when I want to be alone.

A place where winds of
time and space glide gently
through the air.

A place each time I leave,
I’m longing,
wishing I were there.

We deal with many things in life,
so much that brings us down.
We swim through burdens, paddling,
hoping that we will not drown.

I guess we all have to survive,
we have to make our way.
But there is more to life than that,
you have to get away.

Follow your dreams
and wonderous things,
allow your mind to go
to places where your body can’t
and if you do, you’ll know –

that Heaven is inside of you.
You’ll find that you’re still there.
Go find your corner of it,
build your home and rest from care.
