My Body

A poem by Manoj J Lekhi (Amrut Vivek).

 

Just because it’s time to sleep, I sleep

Just because it’s time to eat, I eat

Just because it’s time to get up, I get up

 

But who has decided this time?

Can I just follow my body?

And If I do, I suddenly discover

There is no particular time to sleep

There is no particular time to eat

There is no particular time to do anything

 

The body is guiding me every moment

It tells me, when to eat

It tells me, how much to eat

It tells me, when it requires rest

It tells me, when it requires activity

 

All I need to be is in close contact with myself

To discover the miracle….

 

THE INTELLIGENCE OF THE BODY

BUT

Do I have the courage?

Do I have the sensitivity?

Do I have the time?

Do I find it important enough?

Do I respect my body?

 

JUST THINK ABOUT IT………….
