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!

Wisdom’s awakening
invites us to reveal
paradox of who we are
It is in vulnerability embraced
that resilient strength
compassion emboldens

Inspired by compassion resilient …

They say
hold tight
bound
bind
frame
fasten it
What if
we apparition abandoned
surrender clinging control
& trust
enough we are

Inspired by surrendering control …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
On change’s cusp
shadows & light dance
illumining ambling paths
upward & downward
In pause’s potential
choice beckons

Inspired by potential’s pause …

Fear’s chorus
binds us to what is
diminishing what might be
With courage embodied
sing bravely a different harmony
One that peace promises

Inspired by courage embodied …

Remembering
From silence
courageous whisper calls
amidst atrocities’ tears
memory pleads
that which was
never more shall be
#LestWeForget

Inspired by silence whispering …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
Where is your attention focused?
To whom do you listen?
Where does you energy & finance flow?
There allegiance lies

Inspired by allegiance explored …

Stories
they abound
in pages flipped
& screens swiped
Some liberate
others oppress
What story stirs you
remembering the Light you are?

Inspired by shining light …

Ego’s certainty
dances with
humility’s confidence
Though steps may glide
seemingly unison led
In listening’s role
one binds
& other frees

Inspired by humility’s endurance …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
Amidst certainty’s conviction slogans
Lives unfold amidst shadows & ambiguity
In compassion doing
meaning is clear

Inspired by meaning in doing …

Blaze
Poet writes
Be brightly beautiful
Welcome those who kindle you
Blaze
Poet pens
Be flaring light amidst shadow
illumining Other’s path

Inspired by brightly burning …

As tears hang
sorrow hovers
She threads
In grief’s midst
loss’ anguish
She holds
Laughter
memory illumine brightens
holding both joy & hurt

Inspired by laughter’s salve …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
In shades midst
again it arrives
In doubts presence
space is made
Expectant waiting
Light longing
sit
be Still
listen

Inspired by Advent’s arrival …
