Gentle Power of Health
She sits quietly listening,
then ponders, offers, reflects.
With deep empathy

believe in their presence,
take in benevolence
and support.

She knows her tippy-ness
will remedy
as re-balancing
takes hold in her now.
She smiles,
feels the warm,
gentle power of health.
Compassion for her
own veritable being,
including those places that ache,
wends its way throughout.
Though connection
with others is important,
takes hold in her now.

Though connection
with others is important,
something she still
often craves,
she enfolds her being,
she enfolds her being,
taking time to care for and about
her kindhearted self.
