#MicroPoetry|February ’23 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!

Through moments when
mind discordant & heart conflicted
within each of us
Still Point beckons
In this calm we are each bound
Holy Wisdom resides


Inspired by knowing when to let go …

Perfection’s invitation does not
an arrival to completion mean
In our unfolding
through change’s ever-present honing
more fully human we journey


Inspired by committing to the journey toward wholeness …

Toward the sky
amidst robin’s blue
& with cloud’s embrace
we journey toward a Promise
to which all are invited
In community
our healing begins


Inspired by welcoming companions along the way …

Life's Richness
Life’s Richness
Story Shaping

How We Respond
How We Respond

River Bends
River Bends

At times our paths diverge
journey requires resilience
amidst Life’s riddles
At times paths reconnect
& as we story share
Solace we are embraced


Inspired by savouring moments when we stories share …

Be not discouraged
when river bends
& destination obscured becomes
Trust in discipline committed
& practice that’s honed
voyage upon which we set


Inspired by trusting that around the bend our destination lies …

Holy Wisdom
Holy Wisdom
Healing Begins
Healing Begins
Fully Human
Fully Human

Solace
Solace

Life’s richness isn’t
revealed in linear length
It is in its width
where wisdom is revealed
& in its depth
when compassion dawns
binding us as One


Inspired by engaging in the moment to imagine tomorrow …

Each day of our lives
creates words & syntax
shaping a story
we have agency to tell
As with all tales well read
editing’s refinement essential is


Inspired by the gift to write our tale …

In the maelstrom
where Willy&Nilly
frenetically dance
our agency lies in claiming
the power we have
to control how we respond
to what is happening


Inspired by differentiating that which we can and cannot control …
