"How Not to Take in Fear"
Find a quiet path to walk alone.
See how ocean waves roll
with the pull of a capricious moon,
and the ancient oak holds
ground in a thrashing wind.
Fling praise up to vultures
circling overhead.
Bow like nature to the coin
tosses of circumstance.
Consider a tree for a confidante.
If the journey leads to water,
count on faith to help you
swim safely to the far shore.
Climbing a tall mountain
is a great remedy for fear;
stride upward until you feel
the generosity of Mother Earth.
New muscles will evolve gently,
proving you are stronger than any fear.
~ Carolyn Chilton Casas
