In the Therapists Chair

Written as a response poem last year....she is still looking forward to June!

 

 

Sometimes it is better not to fight the world.

Just lie back in June, feel the sun on your face.

Step back from the fray. 

Live to fight another day.

Let go

Allow natures flow

Follow with your heart

Take the steps to fulfilment

Ignore the world’s woe

Allow your life’s desires to truly flow

Allow the past to be passed. Open the window.

What others think is not your concern

Life is our own journey and we all have our own lessons to learn

Listen to your heart, not what others impart.

They have their own struggles to go through.

We can all be an A*****e,

Even you and I.

They are only doing their best.

Part of human nature.

Another test.

We all have our cross to bare.

We all think life is unfair.

We all fight for our right to be heard.

We all get scared.

.

 

What we don’t do, is recognise our true potential.

We don’t listen when people say it’s ok,

But we all know

What’s good for us

 

And what doesn’t ring our bell.

There is no point in yanking a chain

That doesn’t want to flow.

Drugs don’t do the trick,

 

But we all know what and who produce the right buzz.

Clear your mind.

Make room for not feeling blue.

Love is the greatest thing that ever happens to you.

You know what you need.

Love will never let you hit the ground.

Love is life’s greatest game.

Live it or live in pain.

 

Don’t be afraid.

Pain is cleansing.

Once you are healed

Pure love will remain.

 

Life is what we make it.

It is up to us to break the chains.

Having the luck of the Irish

And a beautiful brain

Is pure gold in your name.

 

Time to truly live.

 

Stop feeling guilty, it’s a complete waste of god given energy.

Strive for what you know you can do.

Makes you so much stronger.

You know it’s true.

 

Listen to your mother.

Take the dive.

It is the only way

To break the circle.

 

Sit back in the June sunshine.

Be the lover you know you can be.

The past is the past.

Forget it.

Break free.

Approve of yourself.

You know you are loved.

Time to just be.

Then you will be ready to be loved equally.

You know you are a wonderful catch.

For the right partner a perfect match.

There is no escape from pains internal rape.

Guilt is revenges end.

Communication

Is our greatest friend.

Break free from tyranny.

Be who you want to be,

But don’t forget

To love.

It’s

Gods

Gift from above.

 

Love yourself

Set yourself free.

 

And that’s all from Tai Chi Italy

 

And she walked out into the sunshine....smiling.

So very true I call this living in the moment with an eye to the future. I think I reached that point not too long ago and my days have been full of joy since I became me and accepted me with no reservations. Lost alot of friends who didn't want me as me but as they thought I should be. Wickedly beautiful poem of universal principals to me. I love poetry like this!

Great form and great choice of words.

Each line is an insight.

Guilt is revenges end. - I loved this line, but i think it should be revenge's

Gods should be God's

I loved this piece. Great write

Ahhh a breath of fresh air.

Really enjoyable read and as ever, full of little insightful gems - some to make you smile and some that are deep enough to give the reader, no matter who they are, some true context.

"Don't be afraid.
Pain is cleansing.
Once you are healed
Pure love will remain."

Phenomenal - its one of those ones you should put on the wall and read every day before you leave the house ;)

Positive reminders and some stunning truths here. "Sometimes it is better not to fight the world./Just lie back in June, feel the sun on your face./Step back from the fray" These first few lines granted me an immediate sense of well being ~ like letting go of a long-held breath. This piece is aptly titled, imagine where all that time and $$ could be better well spent by just "opening a window"! There is so much here to be taken to heart, reviewed closely ..... and often.

Well done, Tai. Thank you for sharing!

This is relaxing for me. I need to be in a real outdoor cafe reading this to myself. With just 'one' cup of coffee.
Very pleasing and nurturing.
