#MicroPoetry|August ’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!

Life’s rhythm unfolds in choices
as we glide & slide
through an orchestra of steps
reminding us that Time’s gift
together we are a Dance Divine


Inspired by losing track of where we are on the floor …

History is our teacher
where patterns and cycles
point to what might be
Yet it is our imagination
that translates what may be
into what will be


Inspired by how the past points to choices yet to be made …

In milestone’s moments
that which we value
may manifest
in how we so respond
Yet it is in our everyday choices
that our character is truly shaped


Inspired by time unnoticed that shape who we will be …

Paradox' Journey
Paradox’ Journey
Love Find

Good News
Good News

Choose

Our riches
never meant to be stored
nor hoarded
To squander with abandon
is to fulfil their true intent
& thus help others to recognise their own


Inspired by nurturing the greatest good …

Trace inspiration’s outline
& we’ll weave our way
to passion which future propels
where we walk in a good way
with Creation
& there we Love find


Inspired by jazz’s chorus to guide toward revelation …

Character Shaped

True Intent

History Teaches
History Teaches

Today arises but once
influenced by what was
& pointing to what imagined may be
the singularity of Now
simply crystallises in one moment
Choose


Inspired by embracing this moment which will never occur again …

We through paradox journey
at times choice abounds
& others we follow
In the continuum’s tension
how might we ensure
that all will liberty have?


Inspired by our choices to live abundantly …

Should our attitude shift
from Ego’s illusion
to Faith’s conviction
we may perceive
with compassion’s care
& justice’s clarity
& so Good News sow


Inspired by letting go the distraction of being right …
