Good habit
Make room for the things that
Feed
Your soul.

Sometimes I know
The pace of
Tardy,
Slow but
Stubborn,
Will outwit
My best laid plans.
Goalposts redrawn.

Have mercy
For those who have not
For those who don’t know how
And weren’t taught.
Have mercy
For your own lost corners
Where the words of others
Might’ve carved a hole
That is yet to get darned
And still exacts a toll.
Have mercy
For your
Need to hope
You’d make your
Spirit
Whole.

Take a break from the city
From the din
From the crowds.
Walk yourself into quiet
Find a park
Riverside.
Turn the clamor to low
Let your breath
Ebb and flow.

Pamper someone
Today.
Cosset Mother Earth, and
Attend with care
To all her beings.
Indulge your loved ones, and
See to those who hurt.
Let others see to you.
Pamper someone
Today.
You will spoil nothing
By offering a plenty
In kindness
To others
And to you.

In the constant feed of drama
And five-minute-news of all-that’s-wrong
And all that must be done
And all that cannot yet
Or won’t be,
Seek a spot of shade
And a penchant for deep breathing.
Nurture moments of quietude
Of birdsong
Children’s laughter
And the breeze whispering
Sweet nothings to your soul.

Be at home
In the world.
In the spaces
Between
Here
And now
All the past times
And futures
To come.
Be at home
In your soul.
Let it inhabit
Your all
Let it welcome
You
Home.

May you find ample nourishment
In unforeseen places
And may your palate discern
True potential
Even amidst
Prickly spines.
May the sun warm your heart
Like a rain in the desert
To ripen fruits so refined
That they feed
All your needs
And your soul
Once again
Realigns.

Tailor your actions
To good mending.
Take care to not
Rip apart
What should be kept.
Adjust your thoughts
So they can fit your conscience
In its Sunday best.
Shape your ways
To outfit what your soul believes in
Sewn to perfect
Silhouette.
Attune to kindness
So it can help you
Choose
The right attire
For your heart.

If your head fleets up and flitters
Filled with too much
And too fast …
Change course
Decelerate and
Descend back to
Calm ground.
