Surrender,
Imagine your arms up in the air
You will not resist, you will not argue
Let the processes surrounding you carve your day
Surrender.
Surrender,
Let your mind be free
Let what is to be, be
No worries, no opinions, no concerns
Surrender.
Surrender,
And feel your tense nerves unravel
To not be in control
Not even for a little while
Surrender.
Surrender,
Listen to nothing
See everything
Taste that sweet freedom
of Surrender.

You put us in a great mood with this one.
Beautiful Mervat...I am an aspirant of the process of surrender, and your poem meant more to me than i can explain....
Ahh, I couldn't resist...your my daily jewel for Tues/Wed... :)
Very good. Have you published a book of poems? Reading this one relaxes you. wb
Poetess Mervat, I surrendered to the beauty of your poem (if only for a few moments).
Gorgeous, Mervat! Such lovely feelings arise after reading this wonderful poem.
beautiful
Gorgeous, multi-layered with meaning...and so darned hard to do, lol.
I am printing this out to put on my fridge, to be a much needed reminder.
Just beautiful!
wonderful!
Came over via Braja...
What beautiful poetry. The concept of surrender is so simple and yet such a struggle. You've captured the essence well.
I do this, but never often enough, so thank you for the reminder. ~Mary
Beautiful. I am so there... or wish I was anyway.

Stopping by from Braja's...
That is absolutely beautiful. Love it!
This is beautiful and such good advice for those of us frazzled in the attempt to keep up with too-busy lives.
Your photo is a great illustration of "surrender", too.

Kayleigh: I think the main point for me is that it is very hard to just go with the flow and to be calm. Much much more difficult than I thought it would be, but once there you truly feel a massive release of stress.
I am honoured that you are printing this out.
malekat_el7oriya: Thank you so much.

The photo was taken recently on our holiday to the East Coast Beaches of Australia. We had gone for a long walk and in pausing for breath I saw this view.
This is beautiful...Surrender, the very essence of love!
