The Calming
As the steam rises,
she closes her eyes,
slipping deeper into oblivion,
submerged in thoughts of
days gone by
Emotions like gnarled, twisted trees,
turning her world upside down
And when the water surrounds her
the calming comes to her, slowly,
deep breathing, candles lit,
music low, her chanting softly
For she reaches deep within herself
to find the light of day and as her
inner strength takes hold
she rises up anew…

I love this poem, especially the stanza: Emotions like gnarled, twisted trees,
turning her world upside down. Lovely.
