#MicroPoetry|March ’24 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!

In our short journey
we awaken to recognise not only ourselves
but one another
Our interconnexion
demands we leave
blessings for those who follow


Inspired by giving to Life for those who shall follow …

From mountain’s foot
where paths traverse here and there
our Stalwart Sentinel silent stands
obscuring peak’s view
where the Moon’s light bathes


Inspired by Light’s revelation on long nights …

Siren’s consumerism pacifies
our inherent rejection
that it is what we do not have
that defines us
Look to abundance
& there we begin to awaken


Inspired by recognising all that collectively steward …

Forgive
Forgive
Epiphany
Epiphany
Acceptance
Acceptance

Gracious Be
Gracious Be

Heart’s courage
pierces through delicate dilemmas
that often obscure righteous realities
Trust to the Wisdom within
& so to liberate one another


Inspired by drawing a deep breath before doing what is right …

Change’s constancy:
we can choose to distract
perhaps even ignore
Yet opportunities
which often arise
require of us one faithful step:
Acceptance


Inspired by allowing ourselves to future cast …

Interconnexion
Interconnexion
Heart's Courage
Heart’s Courage
Moon's Light
Moon’s Light

Awaken
Awaken

Mazes we navigate
often lead back
from whence we began
Not in travelling paths worn
that we find Creativity’s gifts
Embark anew to epiphany find


Inspired by shifting focus to new patterns discern …

Life’s Weave experience imbued
from joyful to loss
wonder to frustration
Tapestry curiosity invites
to see with eyes not our own
thus gracious be


Inspired by embracing Experience’s teachings …

Our facile facade quivers & cracks
when we fail to our wholeness seek
When we no longer neglect ourselves
we can begin to self & others forgive


Inspired by beginning to forgive ourselves …

    Hello friend Richard, so many of these resonate for this pastured strategist at this time and place in life. Thanks for the wisdom sharing.
