Next Big Leap
Little squirrel sat
on the branch
eyes squoze shut
“I DO believe I can,”
he repeated the mantra
over and over
as he contemplated
that next big leap
Little squirrel sat
on the branch
eyes squoze shut
“I DO believe I can,”
he repeated the mantra
over and over
as he contemplated
that next big leap
I discovered long ago
that my weaknesses
and wrinkles in my life,
my shadows, if you will,
are the challenges
toward glory —
The purpose of my path…
So, I’m loving all my wrinkles
nowadays, embracing my fears
as I dance with sweet abandon —
Surrender to the light
