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!

Though time may be traversable
& flight possible
Heroes arise
when dignity’s guardian
awakens the Other to shine

As borders banter & politics politic
children solace long & freedom seek
May liberation’s hope
begin at beach’s edge

Amidst failure
learning seeds potential
Potential’s promise
roots possibility
In possibility
that which can’t
can

Fear & fret flitter
distracting & distancing dreams
Courage & care cultivate
generative & gallant reality
Bravely be

In tempest’s wake
prepared & equipped
surprised & stunned
that which was
nevermore:
& change transformation beckons

Good Morning #Winnipeg
On Seasons’ cusp
as life & death
harvest & fallow dance
May we give freely
& share radically

On terran shore
embracing stellar light-filled field
awed humility dawns
May we care for
tenaciously fragile Creation

Fear grips
frantic search
Tragedy reveals
incomparable horror
In unimaginable loss
tenderly
may we hold one another

As podiums spar & microphones jostle
stomachs grumble & addiction hobbles
May we respond & nurture dignity’s promise

Good Morning #Winnipeg
In the day’s noise
isolation threatens
In the still’s paradox
the promise of connexion begins

In sorrow’s deep darkness
Poet deeply breathes
In joy’s mirthful play
Poet dances
As we life journey
alone
we are not

Hearse departs
in deep sleep we’ll lie
& behind
not following
nor trailing
no U-haul
What then shall be your legacy?

On #labyrinth’s threshold
where one has been
& where one might go
unlimited #potential hovers
With breath drawn
Begin

To the past
oft we stare
dreamingly dressed nostalgia
Yet what is
attention pleads
so what shall be
will surely shine

On journey’s river
ripples cascade
choices require
intention’s attention
as you in you
connects me in me
& we are we
