Mother's Medicine
A heaviness surrounds a once vibrant soul
Its back now turned from old passions
Glued to the bed, a foggy mind reaches for the fan
Falling off the bed, the wind points its fingers towards the window
The light sneaks into the room- playfully dancing upon my eyes
Its enticing movements beckons me out the darkness that enshrouded
The view provides a promise that prompts salivation
Lured out the door- I have answered my calling
My obedience is rewarded with warm kisses
Causing my skin to radiate
My body is caressed with a cooling wave
Engulfing me with reassuring calmness
My eyes are gifted with a delicate painting
That would disperse if I was to invade its softness
The stillness of noise demands me to bask in its beauty
Life kisses me and I dare not break the moment with a cacophony of words
A melody flies in, as if celebrating our consummation
And I carry my new-found lightness through the door
It lends the ability to float through the house with relaxed eyes
I sit to my desk - falling like a feather
And begin to write.
