Anger flares, a fiery spark,
Quick to blaze, leaving its mark.
But fret not, friend, there’s hope to find,
To turn the heat a calmer kind.
First, breathe a deep and mindful breath,
Feel the air fill chest to health.
Count slow, to ten, or twenty’s grace,
Each number cooling anger’s pace.
Next, step away from the raging core,
Distance soothes, shuts anger’s door.
A walk, a talk, a moment’s pause,
To gather thoughts, break anger’s claws.
Water clear, a cooling sip,
Can quench the flames, let reason drip.
Or laughter’s light, a gentle crack,
Can break the tension, send it back.
Words unspoken, let them rest,
For calmest voice speaks wisdom best.
Listen too, with open ear,
To understand, and quell the fear.
Time and tide, they shift and flow,
Let anger ebb, its current slow.
For in the stillness, peace appears,
And ice-cool you, dispel all fears.
So take a breath, a step, a sip,
Find laughter’s spark, let patience drip.
With mindfulness, you’ll find the way,
From fiery heat to peaceful day.
Guchi.
