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!

Upon summit high
goals beckon
dreams summon
potential promises
Here to there
paths to travel
crevasses to traverse
With breath let go
climb

Inspired by standing at the base of a mountain yet to climb …

 

Amidst moments fraught
failure present

tears falling
Therein

Embrace care & support
by illuminating light of others

Upon water still
current silent

Inspired by still waters churned with destination’s vigour …
