Singing with Spirit
Your words and music are strong
Yet your spirit sings louder than song
Is there a chess board beneath those checkers?
I focused heart and mind
to find the game of true success
and beneath the game of checkers
I found the game of chess
Cleaning the Lenses
I didn’t even think to clean my lenses
I was used to looking out that way
It took a moment’s pause
To get down to the cause
Now life’s a little brighter every day
Satisfy the thirsty
You can misunderstand what I offer
You can leave a review that’s the worst
But the water I give from my cup’s not for you
It’s for those that are dying of thirst
HALT!! …before making your next big decision
Ever felt limited by a big life decision?
Confidence… are you a waiter or a creator?
Have you ever waited for confidence to show up before committing to do the work?

Hitting Home Runs in Basketball
I hit a big home run
Yet scored no points at all
For though I had the greatest swing
The game was basketball
Out of the Shadows, into the Light
Like a shadow that’s cast ten times larger
Than the object in front of the light
My guilt seems to grow that much bigger
The more it is hidden from sight
Know, give and grow
I have come and I will go
And what I do with what I know
I will give and help to grow
Those who follow
What if your grandest vision came true
What if
Your grandest vision came true
What if
The path was waiting inside you
Every day, sure and steady…
Every day
Sure and steady
And when it’s time
You’ll be ready
Focusing on focus
The sun can hit a wooden plank
for years without a mark
yet magnify the focused rays
and flames begin to spark
When the answer isn’t hiding in your head
I face the pesky problem
and send it to my head
to find the answer hiding
in my heart instead
What we create today…
What is it I create,
with the time today I borrow?
A compound interest shaping,
what I’ll make tomorrow
