Imagine that you’re in recline 

on a bed of spun silk,

Cool and soft to the touch,

And woven so fine.

LONG PAUSE

As you lie on the soft silk bed

Calmness grows around you

Like plants in a garden.

And your thoughts 

clenched like a fist

in your mind,

Let go and soften.

LONG PAUSE

And the more your skin

Sinks deep into the silk

Lavishing in how it feels,

all your body tension melts.

And the softness you embrace

through every fiber that’s you

Opens your body to movement

with gentle grace through and through.

Imagine you’re a butterfly

Rising from the silken bed 

Your arms turn into wings,

To the sky they spread.

PAUSE

Your wings are magnificent

like no other

They sing together,

A mosaic of bright colors.

PAUSE

As your wings rise with 

a breath of air beneath them

You glide along relaxed and light

To the nearest flower’s stem.

PAUSE

You make your way to 

The heart of the rose

And each satiny petal 

softens your your body

and calls your soul.

PAUSE

And you sip the nectar of the rose,

the liquor of the divine,

and snuggle deep inside the petals

enjoying the sublime.

PAUSE

As you wait for another breeze

to lift your wings above,

You see high in the trees

A snowy white dove.

PAUSE

The dove nods her understanding

In a way that you hear it

You feel overwhelming love

And a connection to Spirit.

PAUSE

The time comes to take flight

To say adieu to this rose

And then glide

To the next sight.

PAUSE

Off to a daffodil,

a blazing yellow blossom, 

swaying to and fro,

A sweet treasure in her column.

PAUSE

And as you alight

on the top of the flower

You notice a bee, a honeybee,

‘neath the daffodil’s tower.

PAUSE

So you descend to the daffodil’s 

cushiony petals,

Spread out your wings 

Into the softness,

To rest just a little.

PAUSE

While the bee goes to work

Kissing her flower

Making Mother Nature’s elixir 

So you bless her and allow her.

PAUSE

Then the bee flies away, 

and it’s your time to drink

a natural cocktail

From the flower’s brink.

PAUSE

And the rest and the drink

restore your power, 

And off you sail to 

Your next garden flower.

PAUSE

While sailing across 

the garden in summer 

A wood fairy joins you

And you soar through nature’s colors.

PAUSE

The fairy’s wings flutter

Like glittery green glass

And she kindly offers

to help with your task.

PAUSE

So together you coast

And she leads you to a meadow 

with flowers swaying in the wind,

And trees casting shadows.

PAUSE

Purple, gold and white blooms

dot the land as for miles

It’s beautiful and inviting

So you thank the fairy with a smile.

PAUSE

And as you sip nature’s potion,

You nod to your fairy friend,

She smiles and sings fairy songs

so you join in.

PAUSE

And after you’ve had your fill

Of Mother Nature’s spirits

It’s off to a hill

With a single flower near it.

PAUSE

This one tiny flower

Leans and reaches for the sun

And opens a bed for you

Where you become one.

PAUSE

With the soft, silky petals

Like the sheets of your bed

You’re at home now,

Soft and safe now,

So gently rest your head.

Namaste, Beautiful
