TO CLEAR MY MIND

Needing to clear my mind
I sit quietly and meditate
Soon I begin to unwind
I feel my soul levitate

I look down and see my shell
in deep concentration
I'm feeling free
What a sensation!

I take flight
I want to see more
I head out
I'm ready to explore

I'm hovering above
the rooftop of my home
Looking around
I proceed to roam

I view from up high
neat little cookie cutter streets
with houses like little boxes
and landscaped yards so neat

The higher I float
as I take a glance
I see people walking down below
looking like little ants

Automobiles so tiny
rolling towards their destinations
I become more distant from all this
as I increase my elevation

Now I'm surrounded by clouds so soft
Enjoying it as I float aloft
It's so wonderful to be alone sometimes
and just quietly meditate to clear my mind
