Allow Yourself to Sit

Right here is where
you will find your center.

Close your eyes and place
your hand above your heart.

Don’t be bothered with details.
Doing it right is not a reason,
                  not even a question
worthy of an answer.

Allow yourself to sit
in the locus of soul,
at the convergence of being,
                  one breath
after another.

Right here is where
you may find something
you thought couldn’t be found –
something  that may
                  create meaning,
                  release questioning,
                  and ease anxiety,
as it brings forth the substance
of eternal peace.

Forgiveness,
in all its myriad forms,
may be the one element
that binds the galaxies
and sparks each heartbeat.
