#MicroPoetry|September ’18 Verses

Every month I tweet #MicroPoetry! In 140 characters, they are part prayer, thought, reflection, challenge or something in-between. I look forward to sharing them with you and hope that they may lead to reflection, musing and perhaps even discussion!

Limit not what success means
expand by heart committed
enrich by mind dedicated
nurture by heart shared
then
when you rise
so shall we all


Inspired by sowing success systemically …

Before us
day unfolds
What it shall be
How we shall experience it
determined
defined
nurtured
not by the external
but by choices internal


Inspired by the day we make together …

Relax
let go
release
tension body binds
Silence
still
quiet
chatter mind distracts
Heart open
spirit wide
listen
for within wisdom whispers


Inspired by body & mind spirit seeking …

Love
vulnerability
forgiveness
partners three
Neither solely
an internal
nor external dance
Healing begins
me
you
when one another we see


Inspired by dancing in threes …

There
ahead
the goal
awakening
fulfillment lies
Yet from here to there
precipice divides
In moment
when logic defies
faith’s step guides


Inspired by faith’s leapt promise …

Nourishing the soul
words played
sung
read
Nourishing the soul
silence reflecting
discerning
acting
Nourishing the soul
friends encouraging


Inspired by community that collectively soul nourishes …

Without you
we would not see
that which only you reveal
Dreams you bear
we must tenderly nurture
for in their birthing
we all shall shine


Inspired by recognising in one another dreams to be born …

Never Alone
Never Alone
Now to Then
Now to Then
All Shall Shine
All Shall Shine

Light's Hope
Light’s Hope
Joy ...
Joy …
We See We
We See We

Joy
but trickles
when hands held taught
& hearts clenched tight
Joy
like a river runs
when arms open thrown
& compassion unfettered
shared


Inspired by happiness’ giddiness when joy is lived as a verb …

That which once served
patterns
habits
responses
honour & celebrate
That which will serve
discern
reflect
act
to travel from now to then


Inspired by celebrating what was and embracing what will be …

The load borne
burdens not
entrusted to you
gifts & blessings
skills & prowess
you alone bring
Be emboldened
into shadows
bear Light’s hope


Inspired by recognising those who walked into shadows hopefully …

She takes our hand
doubt’s moments
indecision’s presence
the first step
tentatively
tenderly
taken
Upon life’s journey
we embark
never alone


Inspired by bravely stepping in the midst of doubt …

Let go
divisions
barriers
walls
Let in
acceptance
compassion
blessing
In this moment
time pauses in breath held
before you me
may we see we


Inspired by the discipline of release to receive …

Faith's Step
Faith’s Step
Wisdom Whispers
Wisdom Whispers
Limit Not
Limit Not

Partners Three
Partners Three
Choices Internal

Soul
