Down(ward dog)
When I am feeling down, I close my eyes.
Breathe in, breathe out.
My bare feet cling to the mat as I stretch, hoping to remain still as to avoid exercise, but I push on.
Upward cat, downward dog.
I slowly feel my sorrows lifting with each pose, each stretch.
When I am feeling down, I close my eyes.
