The rhythm of rising

The rhythm of rising - poem and blog by Stephan Stubbins

My heart beats the rhythm
of rising up high
This seedling is seeking
new reaches of sky

The keys of this piano

The keys of this piano - a poem and blog by Stephan Stubbins

The keys of this piano
One by one are each profound
Yet when they sing together
There’s magic in the sound

Know, give and grow

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

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

What we create today…

What we create today - a new poem and blog by Stephan Stubbins

What is it I create,
with the time today I borrow?
A compound interest shaping,
what I’ll make tomorrow
