#MicroPoetry|September ’17 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 consuming’s distraction
& acquisition’s lull
Appreciation beckons
possessions define us not
It is our intention
that which we are
reveals


Inspired by recognising how appreciation’s embrace reveals who we are …

We are Light
each a spark Divine
that contains promise
illumines hope
care unconditional
When ego released
unfettered compassion
we become


Inspired by Light’s guidance …

Dreaming dreams
when hands intertwine
voices in harmony sing
feet in solidarity dance
That which is
pauses
promising to become
what will be


Inspired by the pause between what is and what will be …

Like a wave
it pervades all that is
Like a spark
it illumines even the darkest sojourn
Like air ubiquitous
unconditionally embraces all
Love


Inspired by light’s various states of being …

Fear bulwark stands
Hurt’s harm insidious weaves
Vulnerability’s strength paradox
In letting go pain fright woven
forgiveness bloom portends


Inspired by forgiveness’ liberation …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
When winds blow & tear
ground shakes & shatters
& water crests & drowns
May our humbling
reveal compassion’s response


Inspired by mother nature’s awful might …

The life we lead
unfolds through choices made
That which we sow
grows in soil we nurture
In decision’s pause
may Love ever potential whisper


Inspired by celebrating being a change agent …

Potential Whisper
Potential Whisper
Those We Touch
Those We Touch
Only We
Only We

Us Begets We
Us Begets We
Begins
Begins
Vibrant Pulse
Vibrant Pulse

No incantation
nor technology
will match
equal
replace
the Light within us
It is when we imagine
that the power to change our world
begins


Inspired by claiming the power within …

Good Morning #Winnipeg
#BeTheChange
to which we aspire
invites us to awareness
dedication
& perseverance
Awakening
there is no Them
only We


Inspired by the awakening change brings about …

As wisdom vision births
fear fretting fades
As deep listening insight reveals
divisions arbitrary fade
When us begets we
awakening dawns


Inspired by the gift of a story …

Unto the hereafter
sometimes too much
do we pine
Whatever may be
as light’s particle wave becomes
What now we do
lives on in those we touch


Inspired by imagining the hereafter …

In this moment
whether frantic or calm
breathe deeply
holding that blessed gift
feel yourself grounded
to the vibrant pulse
that is Creation


Inspired by the heart pulses within the earth …

Like a ...
Like a …
Compassion's Response
Compassion’s Response
Forgiveness Bloom
Forgiveness Bloom

We Become

Intention Reveals

What Will Be
What Will Be
