A poem written for new years end that highlights the breath.

Like waves on ocean shores
Or trains at city stations
This breath comes in
This breath comes out
In moments most unpleasant
As well as In moments oh so pleasant
This breath comes in
This breath comes out
Whether used as support, or as an anchor,
Or never brought attention forth,
Still, This breath comes in
This breath comes out
And even now as I am here
Holding our attention dear
This breath comes in
This breath comes out
So with this breath in mind
for this past year of mindfulness, I thank you kind
Farewell, so long, take care
Friends, colleagues, mindful beings
Enjoy years end
And
Just once more
Just one more breath together
As this breath comes in
This breath comes out
