A New You. Poem by Fay Slimm

A New You.

Rating: 4.9


Close your eyes and gently walk
Down dreamy Memory Lane.
Now stoop to pick and smell the flowers.
Choose just short stays - or stay for hours!
You're happy once again.
You're YOU.

Feel release right through your frame.
Your heart begins to breathe.
With stress gone, grasp this slower pace,
Relax - you're in a different place
And never want to leave.
You're a new YOU.

Examine what you feel right now.
What words spring to your mind?
Lightness? Freedom? Relief and Bliss?
Remember these so you'll not miss
The rescue you will find.
You're a relaxed, new YOU.

Envision your new rescued heart
Which nothing can invade.
This place to go when things are hard
Will transform you, when once you start
To value what you've made.
You're a relaxed and happy new YOU.

Envision your new rescued heart Which nothing can invade. This place to go when things are hard Will transform you, when once you start To value what you've made. This is the part i like most and can relate to Every body wish for a place to go to when thing are hard n the place where everyone seek sanctuary is different and the place where u go when things are hard is the place where u can be u n no one will say anything bad bout u. I think what i want to say is if there is a sanctuary for me it will be like tis, fore nothings can hurt me.

A very excellent poem for its message that is easy to pick up-- having a partner who is a yoga teacher its liken to a yoga lesson in words for the last line says it all in meditation 'Your a relaxed and happy new you', regards uavniceday' Thankyou for your kind comments
