Right where you are,
where you are right now
despite the swirling flurry
all around you,
despite how you may feel
ungrounded, floundering,
feet swept off the sand,
suspended, tumbled

Right where you are,
the force of your centered calm
is still in play,
It steadily asserts itself
beneath the fray,
It guides you home

You’ll feel a gentle balm
alighting like butterflies
upon your day,
whispering wing kisses
showing you
your heart, even when most moved
is still here,
still offers its sweet nectar
feeding you and everything you love.
