Within Soul’s forge
what we fire feed
shapes belief’s instrument
What we shape upon anvil’s mantel
is a matter ethical
affecting dignity for all
Inspired by belief’s import to the world turn …
Beyond the confines

Listen not to false whisper
that divine essence diminishes
Upon still silent presence
focus

The circle of community
holds us when we knee bended
emboldens when passion motivated
expansively ripples outward

Inspired by those who celebrate the blessing we each are …
Amidst justice’s call
stay awake
As opportunity invites
stay prepared
In change’s constancy
stay vigilant
May we these things do
& so future sow
Inspired by embracing change’s challenge to foster a new day …
Your reflections are most welcome!
