Breath of the Horizon

Breathe in,

the sky unfolds, soft as dawn,

each breath a ripple across the sea.

Breathe out,

waves recede, leaving only the quiet shore.

The wind hums a low refrain,

carrying the scent of salt and pine,

a slow dance of air and earth,

whispering between the spaces.

Pause—

hear the silence grow,

feel the stillness settle deep,

where the heart beats steady, like a drum.

Breathe in,

the leaves sway, gentle with time.

Breathe out,

the world holds its breath with you,

in this moment,

you are still.
