Shavasana (poem)

In meditative repose

I lie in shavasana, corpse pose.

Breathing quietly in and out through my nose.

Did I feed the cat?

Should I put on the washing before work?

Need to remember to call the dentist.

Oh.. and I need to add milk to the Tesco list.

And so my mind whirs on…

No quiet thoughts to be found

I focus on my breathing…in  and out…

Seeking the stillness of the pose.

Need to remember to post that birthday card.

And I’ve to call the garage about the car.

Wonder what time my first meeting is today?

And so my mind whirs on

In meditative repose.
