Light
Light shined into corners dark
Watch the guilty scatter
Hidden from the naked eye
Ugly deeds uncovered
Empathy, integrity
Honor, truth, compassion
Restoration needed now
Posterity at risk
Turn the Page
Change, terrifies
Fear of unknown
Slam a door shut
Open anew
XXXXXXXXXXXX
Permanence not
Cycle of life
Post death, rebirth
Fluctuation
XXXXXXXXXXXX
Turning the page
Write new chapter
Adventures wait
Onward saga.
Dial Down
Dial down expectation
Instant gratification
Refuge found divinity
Honor life, thank the planet
One eternal energy
Be Still
“Be still!” No entertainment.
Punishment
“Sit there and think about it!”
Tedium
Worldwide virus halts the train
Stuck inside
Forced to face our inner fears
Panic spreads
Look around at status quo
Comforting
New days dawn, the birds still sing
Flowers bloom
Time to chill, step off the wheel
Wait the storm
Meditate, appreciate
Inner peace
What If?
What if the worst were to happen?
Would the sky fall?
Would the rock beneath you crumble?
Swallow you whole?
Frightening stories imagined
Anxious, worried
Most horrific never transpire
Energy lost
Negative thoughts consume the mind
Pilfer the joy
Magic, love, abundance life grants
Illness prevails
Challenges will test the mettle
View with open heart
What if the best were to happen?
What if……..
From the Heart
Give thanks for
Who you are,
What you have
From the Heart
Give help to
Hungry, poor
Tired, ill
From the heart
Share time with
Loved ones, friends
Volunteer
From the heart
Spread kindness
Smiles, respect
Empathy
From the Heart
Connected we
Woven threads
Joy and peace
From my heart
