Exhausted....Drained!

Exhausted.....drained
Of physical resources
To tired to cry
Victim to spurious forces

She listened to her body?
Her unrealistic workload must end
Healing balm when applied
This dilemma would end

.......so she sat on the river bank
Watching the current flow
Her inner traumer
The depth who would know

It was not becoming
To reveal this duress
Who knew the 'real challenges'
Her many years of distress

.......Many losses
Loved one's taken home
Stripped bare emotionally
This shy recluse, often alone!

........Manu's maid
Had seen it all before
Compassion showed on her features
When she opened the large Kauri door

.......Manu looked surprised
Even a little concerned
"Beloved Daughter
That which you have learned"

Will be as a candle
In a Dark Hallway
Full of many doors
Only one is the Life Truth, The Way

Confusion on earth!
Hold your candle high
The price has been great
You discern what's TRUTH, what's A Lie

.......profound peace!
In SILENCE they sat
Even The Cat remained contented
On Manu's plush mat
