SEND OXYGEN

 

Send oxygen

And all its partners

To the far reachings

Of the body and nerves

            Send blood enriched

            In surging supply

            Let it heal

            And provide energy

Breathe full and wait

Exhale slowly and completely

Hear the wondrous sounds

Puzzle at the source

            When cold surrounds

            Breathe with awareness

            Build heat with your inner furnace

            Send that blood on its rounds

When heat takes a hand

And temperatures soar

Breathe easy and calm

Observe heat dissipate

            Gentle world on display

            It doesn’t stay the same

            Mammals of all types

            Yes, they pass and do not regenerate

            Perhaps a virus somewhere

            Comes back after a hundred years

            But the human is all life and movement

            Keeping ahead of ruin

Lift your eyes

See a horizon clearly

And how the sun sets

And will rise with or without you
