Breathing is one of those essential things that we literally cannot do without. A bit like food – except that you can survive longer without food than you can without breathing! There are a lot of poems about food and drink, right? So what about the poems about breathing? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, look no further – we\u2019ve got a real treasure trove for you! Poetry can be fun and enjoyable to read, but did you know that reading poetry – either out loud or in your head – can actually benefit your life in many other ways too?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The structure and metre of poetry can sometimes be similar to breathing – you have the rhythms, the ebb and flow, and the ins and outs (excuse the pun!) that can all help us to slow down and regulate our breathing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deep breathing is very important – it helps us get plenty of oxygen, plus it can really help with calming the mind and any anxieties or worries that we may have. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many poems, when read aloud, can actually mimic the breathing that is most beneficial to us, so have a look through our poems about breathing and you are sure to find something that will help you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breathing Love<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Author: S. Smith<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Breathing love, with every breath I take
It fills my lungs, my heart, and makes
A peaceful calm within
A gentle, loving din
Breathing love, with every move I make<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
I breathe in love, with every step I take
It guides my feet, and helps me make
A path through this world
Where love can unfurl
Breathing love, with every choice I make<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
I breathe in love, and let it be
A guiding light, that sets me free
To live and to love
And to rise above
Breathing love, eternally.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Author: S. Smith<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Breathing, a process so simple and small
Yet without it, we would surely fall
Inhale, exhale, a rhythm so fine
A dance between body and mind<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
With every breath, we take in life
Oxygen flowing, like a knife
Through our veins, to every cell
Allowing us to thrive and excel<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Breathing, a process we often take for granted
But without it, our fate would be slanted
So let us pause, and take a breath
And give thanks for this gift of life and death.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Breath Of Life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Author: S. Ellis<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
The breath of life, a precious gift
A source of energy, and a lift
From the first breath we take
To the last breath we make
The breath of life, a constant shift<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
It flows through us, like a river
Sustaining and nourishing, forever
A bridge between body and soul
A tether that keeps us whole<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
The breath of life, a miracle
A sign of vitality, and a tell
Of the spark within us, that burns bright
And keeps us moving, day and night<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
So let us cherish, and hold dear
This breath of life, that we hold near
For it is the source of our being
And the reason for our seeing.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Not Breathing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Author: S. Ellis<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Without breath, there is no life
Without air, there is no strife
Without breath, we cannot speak
Without air, our voices are meek<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Without breath, we cannot run
Without air, our feet are undone
Without breath, we cannot play
Without air, our joy is at bay<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Without breath, we cannot love
Without air, our hearts are a glove
Without breath, we cannot exist
Without air, we cannot persist<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
So let us cherish, and hold dear
This breath that we hold so near
For it is the source of our being
And the reason for our seeing.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Oxygen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Author: I. Brett<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Oxygen, the very air we breathe
A gas so vital, we cannot deceive
Without it, life cannot exist
Our bodies and minds would quickly twist<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
It flows through us, like a river
Sustaining and nourishing, forever
A bridge between body and soul
A tether that keeps us whole<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Oxygen, a chemical so pure
A part of the air, that is so sure
To keep us alive, and well
And provide the energy, to excel<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
So let us cherish, and hold dear
This oxygen, that we hold near
For it is the source of our being
And the reason for our seeing.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
