“Learn to Let Go” – Poem

“Learn to Let Go” By: Erickson

The television exudes it. My mentor states it. The world envelops.  

I have to be okay, unclenching my fist 
When my body sits molded in the shape of a cliff. 

The air up here is silver thin,
Fine as if served on a platter.
An icy, gentle stream invests in me,
Reaping sweet, full, and round lungs. 

Please tell me 
You know the meaning
Behind the sky 
Beginning and ending
Everyday
With a painting. 

The clouds follow it. The sun returns to it. The world envelops.
