Answer:

The poem shows that in times of stress and mental confusion, we must provide a moment of relaxation capable of making us comfortable with ourselves.

Step-by-step explanation:

By reading the poem we can see that the speaker presents the idea of stress, mental confusion and discomfort with himself through a noisy mind. When this happens, the speaker needs to be quiet in a place that allows him to be relaxed, to breathe calmly and to establish a friendship with himself, bringing a necessary comfort and calm. We can see this through the lines:

"I leave all my to do’s/ in a place/ asleep like winter trees./ Then I become friends"
