Five-Minute Reflection
A new year added
Again, I’m back at it
Sound in body and mind
Not relegated to rooms that are padded
So I have to be grateful
And thankful for additional 365
My life’s in full circle
Almost like a three-sixty slide
And so swiftly, I…
See myself ascending to higher heights
A higher life
Showing smoke rising once the fire strikes
Since I’m working to get hotter
That’s what my grind is like
Grateful for every breath giving
Working with every second living
Stretching out my time like elastic watch bands
On my knees, I give thanks
With a bowed head and clasped hands…
Again, I’m back at it
Sound in body and mind
Not relegated to rooms that are padded
So I have to be grateful
And thankful for additional 365
My life’s in full circle
Almost like a three-sixty slide
And so swiftly, I…
See myself ascending to higher heights
A higher life
Showing smoke rising once the fire strikes
Since I’m working to get hotter
That’s what my grind is like
Grateful for every breath giving
Working with every second living
Stretching out my time like elastic watch bands
On my knees, I give thanks
With a bowed head and clasped hands…
