MOOD TO CHANGE


             
                               
                                            

Weight of finite upbringing and carved influences

vividly cemented thoughts order repetitive actions

most lacking lustre and genuine intent

robotic mode switched on enough times

anger, jealousy and irritation spilling out of seams.


Efforts persevere to deny and block negativity 

The might revels in its well-reharsed stubborn habit

Tried time and again to pitch

Makeshift tents of compassion and affinity

The cruel storm of impatience breathes

morning, noon and night


Change carves with cold deliberation

Grace trickles in as hide and seek

mustering to fill the hollow  

The umbilical cord snaps one day

chirping squeals of delight

toe of positivity steps in

wriggling room for more

Eh not bad, isn't it, nudges patience! 


Compassion and empathy queue behind, 

all padded for the onslaught

anger and impatience sedated to hibernate.

Mind and body substituting reaction with response

Subtle shift of thought and will to empower the pauses

Toddler beginnings for new tidings.
