inner storms

On too-much-of-everything days, 

my brain brews a storm,

a torrent of thoughts,

a flood of feeling,

a whirlwind of worries.

Guilt gushes over me.

I'm soaked in self-pity.


I root my feet,

anchor my breath,

hold on to gratitude,

caress myself with compassion. 

In the midst of all the storms

the light of love

will lead the way

home.

  4. I like the idea of a home in the middle of a storm, whether that is inner or outer.
