LETTING GO

Letting Go

I released my problems with exhausted breathlessness

as if helium was the magic ingredient.

A secret whisper with years of frustrations entering

each colored balloon.

Up they go one by one with a wisp of my breath each

one floating on clouds of fate and hope.

The breezy feeling of it all comparable to that of a refreshing

shower washing my troubles down the drain.

Anointed beads of forgiveness beat gently on my face.

Each delicate vessel holds a different pain.

A distinguishable emotion that has caused me distress,

anxiety, misery , sorrow.

I let them go filled with doubt and heavy heart, freeing

me from disillusions that have held me captive.

What a daunting task for these fragile creatures filled

with my manifestations of anguish.

Some may make their way back down to me from time

to time , that’s life.

Now I close my eyes breath in then out filling my spheres

of freedom, cross my fingers and then ……….

LET GO !!!!!!!!
