A hummingbird in statute, but a
Megalith of
Hope and
Strength and
Notorious
Mother Earth energy.
Decency incarnate,
Filled with
Determination and
True strength,
She endured
Beyond endurance,
And inspired
Beyond hope,
And will still,
For her legacy shall
Hold.
A real-life super-woman
Even as she was
Super
Human.

So many times the path ahead
Is shrouded in the mist
Of worry, fear
Of hopes and dreams
And all that we resist.
Though as we put one foot
Then next
And make the road our own,
We see the vague
Becomes defined
As steps our souls have
Known.

In every day
There’s room for
Gentle lectures
About living.
No scolding.
No critic.
Just a voice
To give
Some space,
A softened claim
To being.

Conjure hope
From odd bits
Of despair.
Recall the magic
Of compassion
Summoned from thin air.
Remember how small light
Brightens
Everywhere.

Permit yourself
To be
All that you are
Today
With the unfinished corners
Hanging out
For all to see.
Allow yourself
The story
Of the things you
Have become
And still are changing.
Grant your
Everything
A place for be.

Funnel light
Into your heart.
Feed hope
Right
Through
The tightest
Narrows.

Don’t forget:
You can do
All that needs
Follow through,
You can breathe
Life anew
As you hold
To what’s true
For your
Viable you.

Stay focused on what matters:
The smiles that gladden
The hugs that hold
The beauty that makes your heart quicken
The deep power of empathy
The healing breath of soul.
Stay focused
On the big picture
And on the
Details
That make it
Whole.

Our lives are partially the story of others, interwoven into our own. In the good and the bad and the things that time may shift to someplace in between. We are who we let our story make us into. Like the seasons that spin about us, we recycle some bits of our story and reuse other aspects to rebuild or grow from. Through it all, our lives crease along the odd and unexpected, yet are fed by the mundanely profound interactions that form the backdrop to the breaths we take, each day, each moment, as we continue on.

Recite the words you want to hear
Those your heart dreams to
Follow
Recite the words your soul still seeks
The ones that soothe
A sorrow
Recite the words you know are true
They will bring forth
Tomorrow.
