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
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
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
