Rest Benefits
retreat not for defeat
but for rest, plan strategies
dream, imagine, give way
for reason to take a break
let the heart speak for a while
then when the morning light
arrives on the shutters
and lands on your bed
and head
wake up again, take a deep
breath, and dress yourself
well equipped for your
next war of the day...
