#MicroPoetry|August ’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!

Hold not to moorings
lessen assumptions’ grip
release bounded binaries
with excited anxious possibility
discover
in freedom
who we might be


Inspired by letting go in search of what might be …

Life’s hallway
doors adorn
each opens to vistas
awe inspiriting
anxious making
potential promising
with handle grasped
which will we choose?


Inspired by portals that reveal journeys yet begun …

In all things
life
work
love
play
balance
seek & nurture
be kindness & care for self
be trust & deceit discern
be content & life-long learn


Inspired by balance sought …

It does not speak
in silence
clear
It does not dictate
in silence
leads
It does not judge
in silence
guides
Listen
what might
you
we
hear?


Inspired by wisdom silence reveals …

Each act
whether noted
recognised
acknowledged
is prayer unfolding
Into each choice
embed
mind hear soul’s intention
so gratitude blooms


Inspired by prayer embraced as a verb …

Logic’s gift
to ponder
process
prepare
& parse
shines
when woven with dreams
that dare to imagine
that which boundaries cannot yet conceive


Inspired by the place where logic and imagination intertwine …

There
distance lies
goals & dreams
aspiration & possibilities
To arrive
so imagining reality becomes
emboldened be
now
one step take
Begin


Inspired by recognising the steps on the staircase …

Anticipating
Anticipating
Wonder Invites
Wonder Invites
Life's Flavour
Life’s Flavour

Become
Become
Begin
Begin
We Create
We Create

Within
self meets Expanse
& fear dwells not
In depths infinite
paradox held in you
know wisdom
Harness that awakening
become what you Are


Inspired by embracing wisdom despite fear’s temptation …

Light
within each of us
frequency of purpose
wave of meaning
ripples and dances
cascades and oscillates
awaiting
anticipating
its embrace


Inspired by the journey to discover our meaning …

A swirl
energy abounds
positive
negative
charged
As receptors
we are
bound
networked
interconnected
Which we harness
powers what we create


Inspired by the choice of energy we harness …

We are
tenderly
shaped
formed
each precious vessel be
With what we fill ourselves
vinegar souring
or wine restoring
life’s flavour ordained


Inspired by savouring the abundance life has to offer …

She beckons
As night’s sky twinkles
where horizon mountain towers
As waves crest & roll
when Higgs spirals
& flowers bloom
Wonder invites


Inspired by nurturing curiosity in order to wonder see …

In Freedom
In Freedom
Dare To Imagine
Dare To Imagine
Life-long Learning
Life-long Learning

Gratitude Blooms
Gratitude Blooms
Choose?
Choose?
