Yoga Nerd

I am teased often
because I love yoga
and believe it is a good
answer to many a problem
and I think how
sweet that I know yoga
still
and do yoga yet
but not daily
nor often enough
but should never forget
the day we met
and I fell in love
with a practice for finding peace
union and serenity
for my aching for love
for hungry
yearning for hugs
lumpy body soul
and restless
cluttered mind!
