Habits
Establish a habit – 30 days
Re-establish a habit – 30 days
(No wonder most months have 30 days)
Begin
Again
and again
Over
and over again
with the tenacity of bulldog
Stuck in beginner’s mind
intending habit
Life’s Challenges
Leaping like leopards
through hoops of the jungle
Tackling fear as prey
with claws of prayer
and faithful surrender
Sometimes, life’s challenges
help bear witness to courage
Instigating catharsis
in the wake of tough circumstance
Excitement in the backwaters
of personal choice

Depth of Peace
There is a depth
beyond the ripples
still and caressing
And even when the tides
or ungracious storms
collide rambunctiously
The peace
below the surface pervades
Continues to envelope any
who descend there…
Shining Center
Though overcast and grey
the sun shines brightly
above the clouds
Ever shining, ever loving
energizing our bones
Shining, also, in our center
where no clouds reside
Cosmic Dance
Dance with me
in the Cosmic Dance!
Let’s let our hair fly
as the moon and stars
swirl with us
In celebration of the
absolute joy of it all!
