the teach of the round

beginning of the afternoon
sitting on my couch
before and around me
I can see a grand part of the misty sky
I can hear the rain gently falling
and the singing of the birds
so happy
like this day is the best of all
I can feel the bloodstream decreasing
the wind on my skin
the beating of my heart 

those little things we forget to feel when we get older
heads bursting inside worries
so inside
their surface and core stops paying really attention
seeming numb but in fact,
only without the intervention of the pilot 
existing until the day of its ceasing

the birds
the soft rain
the stillness
teaches us so many
shows us we need to be present to allow to feel
and to put our arms around ourselves 
in a figurative, and also not, way
this is what life is in its roots
despite everything we think we know about

to the body we carry
it must feels like craving for care 
to be connected with something beyond the material
and your heart again

I know it is tough sometimes
but please when it is possible,
try
there is no need for perfection
for there is no unnecessary judgement
this is already a step towards better days,
in other words,
you are beginning to take care of you

all of the round teaches us
the interpretation is only yours.
