Lightening The Load
I was feeling a heaviness,
I was being dragged down.
I could feel myself pulling away,
My Spirit starting to drown.
I felt the need to get away,
Coming on so very strong.
Fresh air and quiet solitude,
My prescription for all that’s wrong.
Walking my lonely stretch of beach
Tears and angry words were shed.
Releasing all that toxicity
Helped to clear my head.
With each and every step I took,
Unshackled I became.
Freedom is always possible,
If I don’t refrain.
Sometime it’s a necessity,
To break out and let it all go.
By doing so I free myself,
And lighten up my load.

Lovely! A walk on a quiet beach has powers to restore and rejuvenate.
Thank you Natalia!! It definitely has healing powers!!! ☺️
You’re lucky to have one handy.
I’m extremely Blessed 🙏. My soul strolls have become an integral part of my day…when I can’t take them I get very cranky! 😬
Soul Strolls. ❤

Funny, how it can be so angry and riled up one day, then be a comfort the next. The sea is a funny thing.
Just like emotions?!?! She was comforting today!! ☺️
Luckily she doesn’t get angry too often. But when she does, look out! Come to think of it, that reminds me of my wife! 😃
I think most of us woman can relate to the many moods of Mother Nature!!!!!
Hahaha! I agree! 😃
Beautiful poem!
Thank you Brianna! ☺️

Thank You C! My stroll yesterday was very much needed….the poem therapy 😌
Now I’m feeling concerned. I’m going to be in a perpetual state of worry that the Castle will stir up things you’ve already put to rest…
