On Purpose
Intent and focus aligned
seeking all parts engaged
on purpose
Heart open widely
to guidance
Enamored of Beloved
every fiber of being
living in devotion
Billboard of Memories
Mysterious layers
each with a story to tell
Hidden beneath
more plaster or paint
like some abstract painting
rich texture and hints
Silent messages
overlooking the plaza
where the busy congregate
and only fleetingly notice
the wisdom of prosperous past
A billboard of memories
long forgotten
Juicy Life
I’m ready
For tomatoes!
Life is juicy!
Life Blessed
Surrounded by community
Lifted up and supported
By their love and actions
He grew up sure of himself
With a heightened sense
Of his integral part of it all
And a solid knowing
That he had been gifted
With a life blessed with purpose
His heart sang natural gratitude
To the Great Mystery of it all
Roots Planted
Tenacious as bamboo
Resilient and strong
He grew where he was planted
In the center of his soul
On the banks of Life’s flow
Inspiration blossoms there
Like weeds of truth
Beautiful and ungroomed
Awaiting his arrangement
