#MicroPoetry|December ’17 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!

Wind blows
unseen
shifting
moulding
shaping
lives
Connecting
this & that
me & you
we & us
wind serenity shapes
compassion fosters
#WeAreOne


Inspired by Spirit experienced as wind blowing …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
Pause & wait
shutter sight
open & deeply listen
There
beneath the din
She calls
in grace, gift & gratitude
joy awaits


Inspired by happiness not consumable …

In our living
that shall unfold
this will be
In life’s vagaries
that which we control
is neither fight nor flight
but that which we choose


Inspired by choosing and not reacting …

Hearken not
trumpets war-crying
In places fear-filled
be hands
tender Other care
Be ears
tear listening
Be eyes witnessing
peace
awakening


Inspired by peace awakening …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
Change longing
transformation distant
Healing seeking
dis-ease distracts
Breathe
eyes close
wait
listen
Love beckons


Inspired by making space to wait …

Alone
arms wide
feet firm
onrushing current
neither halt
nor change
As turtle flies
leaf surfs
current mirror
navigating together
course new


Inspired by embracing water’s course …

There it awaits
to light lives
trodden with doubt
trampled with fear
diminished by abuse
Waiting
arising
Joy abundant
healing raptures


Inspired by Joy’s ever-present healing …

Love Beckons
Love Beckons
Love Lived
Love Lived
Healing Raptures
Healing Raptures

Turtle Flies
Turtle Flies
Joy Abundant
Joy Abundant
Most Clear
Most Clear

Good Morning #Winnipeg
Inward wander
seek spark Divine
for at our core
regardless of
colour
creed
there it summons us
to be
Joy abundant


Inspired by out inner light …

Sometimes
words dazzle
razzle
& fizzle
… words distract
obscuring the message
we long to share
… it’s in our doing
that we’re most clear


Inspired by what are doing so clearly says …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
Upon next morrow’s horizon
day’s longing seconds gained
light dispels shadows
revealing beauty words inadequate
Love


Inspired by love’s patient resilience …

As stars innumerable
truths fragment dance
reality incomprehensible
Yet not distant
nor unknowable
Light tenderly
holds us all
as Love lived


Inspired by Christmas’ recognition of Light’s arrival …

There
horizon
sings
of tomorrow that may be
Choices
binary bound
or
liberating lifting
paint
write
dance
into that which will be
a new year


Inspired by a new year dawning …

A New Year
A New Year
She Calls
She Calls
Wind Blows
Wind Blows

Peace
Peace
Be Love
Be Love
We Choose
We Choose
