#MicroPoetry|August ’21 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!

In fatigue’s lull
endurance holds
In stumbling’s mishap
resilience fortifies
In doubt’s temptation
hold to dream’s vision
as our guiding star Hope


Inspired by perseverance in the life’s inevitable challenges …

Journeying through weakness
strength is revealed
knitted into moments
in which we stumble & weep
When we arise from bended knee
agency we claim


Inspired by rising when all seems lost …

Those scars
which we each bear
speak to challenges
in which we have erred & stumbled
are life’s teaching moments
in which Wisdom is so revealed


Inspired by recognises failures is an essential success companion …

Roots Dive

As One

Honour Well

Diversity's Palette

In the face of fear
we are called to persist
through oppression’s obstacles
so that all who may not yet rise
are wrapped in liberation’s promise


Inspired by harnessing fear to #BeTheChange …

Roots deeply dive
tenaciously cling to soil rich
or earthen bare
require time’s resilience
& an intention to thrive
in life’s uncertain unfolding


Inspired by planting a harvest for a future unseen …

Hope

Liberation's Promise

Agency

Wisdom Revealed

Will what I may
yet without You
what We Will
pales to that which We together
can accomplish
As One
that we create
so too shall Our Reality change


Inspired by Our collective Will to the world care …

Hold fast to beauty
In the sublime & abstract
it opens eyes to a future
in which art paints a tapestry
where justice embraces
diversity’s palette


Inspired by the future beauty reveals …

With the gifts & blessings
of which we have been imbued
May we watch for the path
listen for the summons
to so honour well
those who shall follow


Inspired by doing our best with patience & care …
