Grateful Moments

Several times
each and every day
Gratitude rises up
in my chest
like stop-motion flowers
bursting open
In full appreciation
of Life

Caterpillar

One leg up on
the rest of the crew
Caterpillar loved
that he was he
and not some silly bug
with only six legs

Shower of Love

In the shower of love
my pores soak it up
All the extra stuff
soiled or shadow
sticky or too sweet
sloughs off
And I am left standing
whole and complete
In Spirit’s house
I shower every day

Shining His Light

A point of light
in all the darkness
Shines and sparkles
in velvet night
The fire of Spirit
shines a beacon
Burning bright
from him
for all to see

Best Friends

We ride the tides
big waves and eddies
You and I best friends
through it all
You up, me down and the other way
a great connection
silent listening, hand extends
shouting or singing
You can count on me
even in the dark
And I know you are there
even with my eyes closed

The Truth

The Point is not the point
Rather, the heart of the matter
defines the quality
and rhythm of life
We can justify with statistics
and other implements
yet under construction
The Truth simply is
Now and Always
The true Point
