Reflections of My Heart: Gentle Imaginings

One day back in 2010, I wrote this poem about all the times I have wanted to lay my head back in a warm tub of lavender bubble bath and melt away all my worries and woes.

I wanted to close my eyes, feel my breath, and rest in tranquility. I wanted to lie there in the solitude of my own being with the soft sounds of music and melodies, drifting me to a place of perfect harmony.

GENTLE IMAGININGS

My bath is a quiet place
Where I can rest,
And gain some sweet repose

In peaceful thoughts
Which sooth my soul
And quiet relaxing music
To drift far, far away!

I stretch out my feet
And close my eyes, listening
To sweet melodies!

And now
That I
Am all alone
Totally, and absolutely all alone,
I can regain my
Perfect harmony!
