Tai Chi Practice
“White Crane Spreads its Wings”
Sunlight rippling off the
Ramapo River
Deep breath in.
During commencement, I raise soft, rounded arms. They ascend, roll and descend.
Deep breath out.
As I pivot and “roll the ball.” Empty, fill. Breathe in, breathe out. Brush knee left. Then the rest of the Yang long form.
When I conclude, a tingling flow fills every muscle.
Resting in the horse stance
Trembling underneath
Florescent lights
