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!

There are times
when the darkness seeps
obscuring the Illumination
for which we collectively seek
In such times
hands held
we seek Light’s warmth

Inspired by seeking hope in Chaos’ midst …

The what we do matters
The how we do it is important
The why we do it is our legacy

lifting souls discordant

standing surveying

It is our nature to move
toward the horizon
which is ever beckoning
innovative imagining

Inspired by knowing when to begin again …

We’re meant to do
shaped to act
intended to be
Be justice bravely
compassion effortlessly
forgiveness gracefully
In so doing
dare to inspire

Inspired by bravely risking …

what is just
what is truthful
Are not illustrated in wordsmithing
In the act of doing these things
so wisdom shall be known

Inspired by the act of doing …

Upon water still
current silent
ripples resigned
motionless we sit
Upon horizon
destination awaits
so together
paddle we must water strike

Inspired by still waters churned with destination’s vigour …
