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!

Good Morning #Winnipeg
This place we call home
invites as to be Now
that which we hope Will Be
May we #Compassion be

Inspired by what home might be …

We are dancing light
cascading colours
rainbow hued
seen & unseen
Through travesty & tragedy
we are beckoned shine

Inspired by the potential of light cascading …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
In frigid beauty embrace
& light rainbow beckoning
as sol slowly climbs
May we warmth temper

Inspired by cold’s beauty & dogs that sun dance …

Joy
neither earned, nor acquired
Wisdom
neither quantified, nor qualified
As wonder
awe guided
awakening stirs

Inspired by the promise that is childhood wonder …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
Before us a day yet tread
path unwalked
choices yet made
Into abundant potential
we begin

Inspired by a crisp prairie winter day dressed in blazing sunlight …

On fear’s cusp
embrace energy vibrant
& awareness fierce
for behind is what was
emboldened
ahead lies what will be

Inspired by fear & courage’s dance …

Broken tales
bind us to flattened endings
Beauty’s story
frees us to sequel’s shine
Light we are
May we so blaze!

Inspired by childhood stories that inspire dreams …

Amidst outrage & horror
in cordite sulfur’d legacy
after bullets fly
it’s tears’ trail
that leads
from hurt
to heal

Inspired by compassion lived amidst violence’s storm …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
As a #YearOfReconciliation dawns
May those who speak
listen
May those silenced
be heard

Inspired by the beckoning promise of living into #RightRelations …
