I thought of you, my dear yoga friends, when I heard this read to me today in a yoga class. Hope it will brighten your day as it did mine.
ON A DAY WHEN THE WIND IS PERFECT
On a day
when the wind is perfect,
the sail just needs to open and the world is full of beauty.
Today is such a
day.
when the wind is perfect,
the sail just needs to open and the world is full of beauty.
Today is such a
day.
My eyes are like the sun that makes promises;
the promise of life
that it always
keeps
the promise of life
that it always
keeps
each morning.
The living heart gives to us as does that luminous sphere,
both caress the earth with great
tenderness.
both caress the earth with great
tenderness.
This is a breeze that can enter the soul.
This love I know plays a drum. Arms move around me;
who can contain their self before my beauty?
This love I know plays a drum. Arms move around me;
who can contain their self before my beauty?
Peace is wonderful,
but ecstatic dance is more fun, and less narcissistic;
gregarious He makes our lips.
but ecstatic dance is more fun, and less narcissistic;
gregarious He makes our lips.
On a day when the wind is perfect,
the sail just needs to open
and the love starts.
the sail just needs to open
and the love starts.
Today is such
a day.
a day.
