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!

Wait not
for the world changes
when each of us with small
intentional acts
seed sow support
the social good
so that all may dignity know

Inspired by small ripples that usher in change’s wave …

Imagine
tomorrows
come nevermore
Imagine
seeds sown
cast no longer
Your dreams
blessed beauty are they
wait not to bear them into our Now

Inspired by recognising when tomorrows come no more …

Sun rises
slumber to awake
we arise
Blinds closed
what we see
shape
is
awaits
With arms wide
curtains drawn
what world shall we create Now?

Inspired by each dawning day’s beckoning potential …

They cascade
words weaving reality
from the mundane to the arcane
from the benign to the divine
Those which we choose
cultivates
Now
creates

Inspired by tending to gardens yet to bloom …

There are so many words
each connotes
denotes
provokes
emotion
energy
In their multitude
syntax’ form
those we choose
may dignity embrace

Inspired by the way grammar structures a longed-for-reality …

Strength
Tamarack dances in maelstrom’s melody
tenaciously swaying repose
she responds flexibly nimble
standing
as storm’s tempest recedes

Inspired by recognising strength as fluid not brutish …

In nature’s woven lines
binding this to that
& that to this
not in weave’s complexity
that inspires
but in simplicity
that symmetry reflects

Inspired by simplicity’s singular stirring …

When hearts break
shatter
as porcelain
upon granite
words fail
as tears fall
revealing soul’s tender mourning
then an offered hand heal

Inspired by the cycle of life & death …
