Memorize a poem today.
The good Dr is trying to give us a cognitive boost, invigorate the
spirit…get the blood pumping! He
suggested a nice poem but here’s the one I’m choosing. It’s by Jill Scott from her The Moments, The
Minutes, The Hours book of poetry. Diva
grabs mic……
To
My New Lover
For the first time I’ve allowed someone, no you, to strip me of all my
Clothing, all my confusion, all my doubt, all my fear of love
And life.
I am Naked. Yes naked, Butt
naked and
Impressed with your ability to see me,
To see ME
Clearly
Through my private, lonely haze,
You touch me.
You feel me and make me tremble with the possibilities of
Tomorrow, the next day, the next day and forever baby.
With you,
I feel my cloud cleared
My rain washing me
With you
My flower blooms in December cold
With you
I lose mental chaos and gain tranquility
You have my power and when I grow weary,
You replenish me
With you
My angry ocean sits placid easy calm
With you
I have become
My entire self.
Thank you.
