PAUSE It’s time to open up; It’s time for yourself; These moments are precious, And good for your health. PAUSE Now, imagine a time when you were angry, Let it gently sit in your mind. Keep your distance from the feeling, So your teeth don’t grind. PAUSE Because anger is that emotion, That is much like a crunch! If not kept in check, It can lead to a punch. PAUSE Why does it do that? Because you’re holding it in. What you really need, Is a safe way to express it, Without giving in. PAUSE So, imagine your anger As popcorn, candy or seeds, Or celery, cucumbers, Or apples from trees. PAUSE And acknowledge these foods, With their crunch and their taste, Each offer a gift That you won’t want to waste. PAUSE For with crunchy comes healthy, and sometimes sweet, So when your angry It’s important to find that little treat. And that treat is inside; It’s what your anger says you need, Speak it, write it Just do it constructively. And when the crunch is released, And your body is calm, You’ll be glad you expressed it, You'll be ready to move on.
