Let laughter
Ripple through you
Like ribbons
Of joy.
Let it fill you
With mirth.
Let it buoy you
Aloft
When the world
Tilts ahoy.

Make room for growth
Inside yourself,
So that you may find counsel
In the wisdom
You possess,
And in the unfolding knowledge
That might feel today
Not much more
Than a guess.

The infinitesimal
May grow
To be
Bigger than you
Now know
To see.

Hold on close
To the hope
Even if
It is a bit
Tired.
So no matter the noise
Distraction desires,
Hope remains warmed
In soul
Where truth never
Expires.

Even the mountains
Seeming well set in stone
Their uncompromising
Place so solidly headstrong
Can move
Themselves
Pebble by pebble
Rainstorm by rainstorm
To places one had
Never thought
A mountain
May join.

Do not stifle
Truth
Or hope.
Hold fast the
Pieces
That were
In fear
Squelched back
Or were suppressed
By those pretending
To be
Righteous.
Let go.
Let be
The glorious unfurling
Of your being.
It is who you have been
Meant
To grow into
Before
And all along.

May the light
Spark the day
Glinting awe
On its way.
May the waves
Hug the sand
As your heart
Understands.

Do not feed the gremlins,
The worries
The woes
Do not feed the problems,
The myriad of “No”s.
Feed instead shoots of hope
Tender hearts
Ways to cope,
Feed the thanks
And the kindness,
Feed the soul
Evermore
With all things
Grateful
For.
