Set free the light that’s in your eyes
The dreams you birthed
But hid
In fear of failure.
Set free the path yet to unveil
The hopes
The awe
The wonder.
Walk tall into the day to come
Dance free toward your
Future.

They rush down flights of stairs to the rumble of trains
Weave through masses of people again and again
Take the B, take the D, take the F, take the N.

Take the express train
To a fun-filled day
Recall the awe
Of speed and sway
And hold on to
The gift of play.

Beaches with sprawling, gentle surf are among my favorite things in the world. Long, shallow waves that coat expanses of sand evoke an instant relaxation response in me, and this glowing photo taken in Australia is no exception. The light on the water deepens the magic and transports me to time before time and this very moment in time, where the steady breath of the ocean pulses the very heartbeat of Earth and moon and sun.

Be brave
Be bold
Soar high
Behold.
Be free
Be fine
Climb up
And shine.

It is okay to see the risk
And not step
Fully
Into it.
Courage does not always
Mean
Precarious
Heaving ho.
Perilous paths
Indeed at times
Need forging,
But aren’t
All
Tests of
True bravery,
When often enough
The careful way
Around
Is a daring
Opportunity.

Don’t be fooled by appearance,
Bravado
Or pomp.
Fiduciaries of trust
Aren’t those loudly declaring
The draining of swamps,
But those who watch out
For dereliction of duty
Against trolls
Full of tromp.

As peaks tower above
Too-tall tasks
Too-far prize,
Take small steps
Pace yourself,
But continue
To rise.

Do not succumb
To disillusion
Or dismay.
Do not surrender
Awe
Or play.
Hold on to
Tomorrow
For a better day.

What thoughts are swathed
Under your wrap?
What life
What pain
Your brows speak of?
Your eyes avert
But hearts respond:
You’re seen
You’re heard
Becloaked or not.
