#MicroPoetry|August ’22 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!

We’ve arrived at this moment
shaped & nurtured by those
from whom we inherit Today
We must now this trust
be aware we too this mantle
shall pass


Inspired by an inheritance that we must pass on well …

We are collectively & particularly
in constancy Becoming
Shedding barriers
releasing toxicity
we begin to Awaken
to the Universe’s aspect we are


Inspired by releasing what we get in order to more fully receive …

We each an ingredient bear


Inspired by celebrating what we each bring to Life’s feast …

Each response we experience
bears a teaching wisdom revealing

With care syntax curate
so as to journey
toward which we’ll Create


Inspired by a commitment to create in a good way …

Growth's Promise

Inspired by learning in paradox’s midst …

Mind’s hive
produces happiness’ sweetness
or stirs worry’s swarm
Nectar nestled in each comb
through habit or discipline
seeds intention’s nectar


Inspired by the beauty of a bee’s dance …

Discipline hones tasks to practice
Commitment sharpens chores to praxis
It is in our unfolding doing
that integration augurs wisdom’s arrival


Inspired by the intersection between doing & praying …
