Yoga
my body,
a stiff, dry sponge
waiting for a splash of water
to bring back its soft, resilient nature
yoga is that water
absorbing, penetrating, expanding
my breath, fuller and more relaxed
muscles calmed
connecting tissues no longer taut
each day,
the choice to moisten my sponge
readying it for its role in the day ahead

the choice to leave it parched
