New place, new feelings

My eyes jerk open
I'm in Mysore.

Deep draughts of air
I breathe in.

The cool air wraps me up
Like a familiar and welcome blanket.

So different are the trees and the birds
And the people and the energy,

That I feel transformation
Growing within and around me.

My energy changes colour and intensity
Feelings are born afresh, revived, anew.

Excitement and anticipation rise,
As new ideas conceive themselves in my mind

And wait in the threshold of my mind
To be moulded into action

And everything in me
Want to be out there

In the real world...
