inhale, exhale

a new year, a new city,
exploring, experiencing,
floating, existing…

a simple practice,
a grounding familiarity,
balancing the body,
humbling the heart,
bringing a fresh, new,
energetic start…

inhale, exhale.

melting into a posture,
melting into movement,
melting into myself,
stretching how well
you know yourself…

inhale, exhale.

the studio, full of strangers,
unfamiliar faces,
whose smiling eyes send me
welcoming embraces.

a girl heads home,
he imagines a hello,
always curious,
just to know.

her way and her voice,
her thoughts and her name,
maybe we share some way
of feeling the same.

he’s always a bit shy, but
he still moves to say hi.

inhale, exhale.

the words, found naturally,
she smiles, so casually,

strangers no more,
for on this day,
your yoga studio,
offers something more.

reflection and connection,
stretching our spirit,
there’s a lot to learn,
for those who want to hear it.

an unusual request,
an email address,
getting this far,
took every ounce,
now, i just hope,
this doesn’t bounce.

exhale…
