#MicroPoetry|January ’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!

On life’s spiral unfolding
balancing choices
between growth & safety
are ever required
Into this day’s possibility
what path shall we so follow?


Inspired by seeking balance in life’s unfolding …

We inhale
stars’ particles
infinity’s vestige
not a linear trajectory
We exhale
possibility’s birth
learning’s opportunity
creativity’s emergence


Inspired by noting each breath’s draw & release …

Creation
An intricate balance
of beauty & bareness
tranquility & turbulence
of a mirrored dance
As companions they reveal
wisdom to Its stewards


Inspired by learning from the thorns girding the rose …

We Transform
We Transform
Gratitude Become
Gratitude Become
Humility Learn

Defend Silenced
Defend Silenced

The foundation upon which we build
the manner in which we wisdom seek
is not an internal journey
but one that ever serves
the dignity of Another


Inspired by embracing our call to service …

This day
into which we walk
is woven by the thoughts we project
To affect the change
to which we are Called
our thinking, then, we must transform


Inspired by switching the channel from what Is to what Will Be …

Follow?
Follow?
Foundation

An Intricate Balance
An Intricate Balance

Creativity's Emergence
Creativity’s Emergence

The appreciative tasks
to recognise humility’s import
wisdom’s liberation
& the Universe’ generativity
In this
our commitment
we gratitude become


Inspired by not just seeing but recognising abundance in the fabric of our being …

As agency acquiesced
paradigms unseen
propaganda insidious
dignity robs
Bravely be
speak truth to falsity
& defend silenced
by narrative distorting


Inspired by never ignoring power’s paradigm …

Determination to do a thing
meet a goal
harvest possibility’s bloom
begins with perseverance’s will
resilience’s forge
& humility to ever learn


Inspired by the breadth of potential captured in the human will …
