Meadow



I was thinking about meadows,
About enjoying lying down in them
On a lovely Summer's day
When the tall grass is green
And the breeze is warm
And the sun shines down from
A clear sky
So far above
Have you ever given yourself over
To such a day,
To the point where you wish
The day would never end
And you could lie back
And relax like this forever?

I wonder if you can imagine
Or remember
Such a day
Better if you remember
Because you were
Really there
Suppose you could
Go there again
Right now
And find yourself in
That exact spot
That same warm breeze
The same warm sunshine
The same rustling sound
Of the grass
Would you notice
Your body reacting
The same way as
The first time?

And when you are there
And you notice
The only sound being
The wind and the rustling
Of the grass and flowers
And your slow deep breathing
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out

Do you focus your awareness
On how much
Your body relaxes
In the silence as you
Become aware of your breathing
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out

And notice your slow heartbeat
As you breathe slowly
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out

And notice the way you seem to
Focus on nothing any more
As the more you relax
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out
And focus your awareness
On how the more you relax
The more your thoughts
And feelings
Fade into nothing

Imagine them like dandelion seeds
Rising up into the air
Blown on the breeze
Sky full of them
Nothing in your head
Like a bare dandelion head
Bare, empty
All your thoughts
Gone in the wind
All your feelings
Blown on the breeze
And still notice
How slowly you are breathing
As the wind blows gently
Slowly
In such a relaxed way
In the meadow
Unhurried
Fresh air filling your lungs
Deeply
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out
Breathing in
Breathing out
So deep
Nothing left in your head
Empty light heart
Just silence
Deep silence
Ready to slip down
Into trance now
Deep deep trance
Consciously listening but
Unconsciously already in trance
All you have to do
To let go and slip fully
Into deep deep trance
Conscious still in the meadow
Far far away
Is to say hello
Unconscious mind ready to
Receive instructions now
Just say hello
And when you say hello
Let go
Let it all go
Go into full trance now
And go here to receive instructions
