GET COMFORTABLE

A Poem

GET COMFORTABLE

In our complex, chaotic, complicated, unnerving, painful, stressful life, we need time and music.

The unwind time.

The reflective time.

The jacuzzi time.

The recharge time.

The rest time.

The sleep time.

In our complex, chaotic, complicated, unnerving, painful, stressful life, we need time and music.

Music has powers and forces that

are powerful.

Music soothes thoughts, worries, 

and calms minds.

Music comforts and heals the pains.

Music speaks to hearts.

Music plays and keeps things

in the moment.

Music stirs pleasant memories. 

Music pauses the stress and stressors.

Music rests the souls.

In our complex, chaotic, complicated, unnerving, painful, stressful life, we need time and music.

Time and music are all we need to get comfortable.

Writer's notes: My poem is submitted to the Vocal's Get Comfortable Challenge. GET COMFORTABLE is dedicated to my grandchildren.
