Failing to tamp the flame of fear
That licks hungrily around my consciousness
Sleep once elusive returns but a carriage of bad dreams clatter
Across the stones of slumber
Throat tightens and fears roar in and out the windows in my mind
Throwing open the door I inhale the air
Lightened with bird song
One step
One minute
One breath
Inhalation
Incantation
Exaltation
Well written Anne, one day at a time.
Captures the feelings of this extraordinary time..well done Anne
