Comforting: Poem
To thrive in life
We need three bones –
A wish bone, a backbone,
And a funny bone.
With other words –
To dream, to stay strong,
And to find time to smile.
Do not take yourself
To seriously, said the elf.
Never clip your wings.
You need your feathers
To fly high to the planets.
It is time to ripe
To thumb your nose for demons
For the last time.
Complexes, guilt, and fears
Of all kinds are gone
Which is fine.
Please do not estimate yourself. –
You are the most powerful elf.
Every cup of morning coffee
Has the wishbone of quiet moment.
Crafting the brew worth savoring
For the backbone.
Every morning is deserving
