Figuring It Out

Looking Up is a spoken word poem about wonder, mindfulness, gratitude, and the simple act of pausing long enough to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us. Inspired by the vastness of the sky, this poem reflects on breathing deeply, embracing the present moment, and finding peace in nature’s quiet reminders. Through each inhale and exhale, we are invited to look beyond our worries and reconnect with gratitude, abundance, and possibility. Sometimes all it takes is looking up. ☁️ Breathe in. 🌎 Be grateful. ✨ Live fully. Thank you for listening.

This is a poem by Manuél

Watching the Sunset

Watching the sunset,

the golden hour arrives—

another memory

written into the day.

I breathe.

One, two, three.

I exhale.

One, two, three.

Gold, orange, gray, and white

paint themselves across the sky,

clouds drifting softly

around the fading sun.

And for a moment,

I am mesmerized.

Today may be ending,

but tomorrow

is another beginning.

A reset.

A refresh.

Another chance

to rise again.

I breathe.

One, two, three.

I exhale.

One, two, three.

Through the smallest openings

in the clouds,

light still finds a way

to shine through.

And somehow,

so do we.

I breathe.

One, two, three.

I exhale.

Three, two, one.

I welcome you, and value your engagement

to poetry and these spoken words about healing and reflections by Manuél.

Thank you for listening.

Be good to yourself and to others.

🤍 💛 ❤️
