As the water flowed into my morning cup
-the water I once regarded as onerous-
I found myself eager for it to reach the top.
So that I could drink it down, taste it, let it refresh and heal me.
The flow was so pretty, I thought about letting it run over the top so that others could see what I had.
I entered a moment
Where I’d said all I wanted
Where I’d heard all I wanted
Where the static cleared
Where I thought “Thy Will be done”
I noticed the rain stopped
Wisdom, how shall I deal with it?
It’s brave and of strong back, and oft’ times messy-sweet.
I must exhaust it beckoning, “Come forth with one more feat!”
Dear Sir,
I’d wait a lifetime and on deathbed say yes, than go rushing where only fools reel.
Faith, that perseveres with truth – despite my uncertainty – I will honor you.
Love that speaks friendship – even into the wee hours of my consciousness – I will take your hand.
Hope, that pursues me in peace – though I slumber – I will cherish you.
Whatever you are
Moving with purpose and truth
I’ll never cry stop
Wow, how long have I known you?
Those sparkling, honest eyes and truthful smile.
Those strong legs and even stronger heart.
That chin born to parallel the ground.
That clear, kind voice.
Wow, how long have I abandoned you?
By being terrified of mistakes.
By sacrificing Peace for peace.
By averting eyes from passion.
By keeping you in longing.
I am so sorry! It is so good to see you!
A tent and a sun
And my soul and a flower
Lives are made of this
Purify my mind
Please I do beg your pardon
Where did I pass night
Paralyzed and gagged
Powerless to wipe away
Because of the grey
