Neshamah

Breathe in the lightness of your surroundings;
Exhale the darkness, sorrow, oppression, and fear.

Absorb the joy of the moment,
the fragrant, comforting breeze of euphoric spirit.

Let the delights of the sky above, earth below, 
sun’s warmth, and the sound of refreshing waters wash you clean of distress.

Feel the molecules of life, and the spaces encircling them move within you; 
listen to the pauses between the words spoken and floating in your mind.

Recognise the harmonic silence when the music rests, or the cadenza fades away.

Become part of the surrounding Life; 
let your calm awareness enhance and embrace the Light.
