Pyramid Poetry (January 2004)

By: Becky B. Watkins

Written on the plane home to Louisiana after Teacher Training week 11-23-03

Pull
the plug
sinking down
move from center
let go
breathe.

Pull
taffy
and mean it
waist turning slow
deep and low
pulling
back

Reflection on the Principles

Love
Resides
Underneath
the principle
taking me
way down
deep.

All
are one
in God’s eyes.
Her presence felt
in stillness
brings such
joy.

Chi
life force
energy
moving in us
to grace us
in the
now.

Trees
sink deep
into the
heart of mother,
sister earth,
sending roots
reaching
out.
