Breath fills me with life
from head to toes,
I behold the magic
unfolding slowly.
The head thinks logic,
the heart pumps blood,
the limbs get energy,
the movement begins,
pause, a moment
before it leaves my body.
The rhythm continues
like the musical notes,
of the keyboard of a piano,
creating a symphony
of thoughts, feelings.
The eyes blink,
the nose smells,
the tangible touch,
the sound waves
striking the ear drum,
the tingling taste buds
of tongue relishing
each delicacy.
Pause, a moment
before it leaves my body.
Entering the threshold
the breath fills me again
a beautiful merging
of soul and flesh
in totality,
till death do us part.
Relephant:
It All Begins With the Breath
