Gentle as Dewdrops

Breathe in—

the air is soft,

cool against your skin,

a steady rhythm,

like ocean waves curling,

unfolding quietly.

Close your eyes.

Feel the weight of the earth below,

the warmth of the sun,

its tender touch melting into you.

Breathe out—

the moment stretches,

lingering like the pause between bird songs.

A single leaf

drifts down,

slowly,

turning,

its path unwritten,

its rest inevitable.

Let your thoughts settle.

Feel the steady hum of stillness

beneath the sound.

Pause—

here is where the breath lingers,

where the heart slows.

Here is where

you simply

exist.

The stream moves,

not rushing,

but listening.

The breeze hums,

not seeking,

but holding.

Rest in this.

Breathe in—

hold.

Breathe out—

release.

The world turns quietly,

carrying you

with care.
