I got more bold
and more careless of cold
and send it to my head
To find the answer hiding
in my heart instead
do you love me?
Be the answer
...yes
I tried and grew
a niche of my potential
I let you go
and now I grow
in networks exponential
...but don't stare

We prevailed
Built upon the losses
of all we tried and failed
The loss turned into learning
and that’s how we prevailed

Twice
I’ve made the mistake
and suffered the price
Now let the guilt go
or pay for it twice

Dry desert
Persist through the droughts
Move forward and know
Where dry desert ends
Green grasses grow

No Double Jeopardy
Has a book ever stopped you in your tracks and changed the direction of your thoughts thereafter? One mind-changing moment for me came from the book…

Hero story
Looking back at the loss
While wearing the bruise
Am I victim or hero
…with my actions I choose

Transform
Either conform
into what you can see
Or transform
into what you can be

The Feedback
Feedback is a diamond
freshly from the earth
Hard to see the sparkle
in that state
Yet polish off the edges…

Grasping or giving
Grasping for love
propels it away
Giving with love
attracts it to stay

Works of art
I walk through art-filled halls
of what has come before
dreaming of the future
in my heart
Then, I turn and climb the stairs…

A million shades of green
This forest is enchanted
with a million shades of green
and in the small are galaxies
of endless wondering


Make change last
While shortcuts
can make changes fast
It’s habits
that make changes last

Surely Seeking You
Be what you can be
and do what you can do
For what you surely seek
is surely seeking you

The “now”
The “now”
Is like a peacock in flight
A million tiny miracles
suspended alight…

Beneath the stories
Beneath
the inner stories we allow
Await
the inner glories of the now

We prevailed
Built upon the losses
of all we tried and failed
The loss turned into learning
and that’s how we prevailed
