To learn
awakening’s gift to wonder
To teach
nurturing’s future pledge
To share
when I/me becomes we/us
Worry weighs wearily
Concern carries caution
Anxiety arouses alarm
In still silent speculation
clarity comes clear
Painter’s palette
mixed hues & tones
brushed broad boundaries
widening varied vistas
Into focus
your story emerges
When mental dis-ease
violent manifest
fear & judgement tempt
When deep listening
embraces harm
may our healing begin
Good Morning #Winnipeg
Peace thrives in relationship
where ‘you’ = ‘me’
‘I’ = ‘you’
In harmony
peace & conflict dance
Waiting
pursuit unaccustomed
Reflecting
practice discouraged
Pausing
discipline avoided
Listening
invitation extended
Mirror reflects
inadequacy’s message
diminishing dreams
Pause
Breathe
Look once more
see
recognise
Creation’s beaut
Good Morning #Winnipeg
Amidst consumerism
& despair’s mantras
Joy’s intuition guides
gratitude invites
thanks abounds
Sunlit shortening season
Holy Days ritual cadence
Days of Yore
Days of the Morrow
In the Now
an invitation to wait
Days foretold
Futures imagined
Possibilities promised
Potential portended
Now – wait
patience paints that to come
Hearts long
Seasons change
Story shifts
Narrative adjusts
With falling tears
How does change
illumine forward’s way?
What we write …
what we imagine ..
what we create
makes this thing we call reality be …
Good Morning #Winnipeg
Love
Be the verb
Be its hands
Be Stranger’s #compassion
Be stalwart standing #solidarity
Language & Syntax
Nouns & verbs dance
Commas divide
Pronouns substitute
Adverbs modify
& in ellipses’ pause
we act
On cusp we stand
candles flicker
diminishing dimness
Waiting Time unfolds
toward Light’s arrival
& Promise born
How doth my soul move
Without judgement laid
truth revealed
Succour heard
Embrace acquired
Share shall I
Rejoice …
Good Morning #Winnipeg
May today reveal the gift we are
compassion’s care greet us
generosity’s blessing be shared
