Pull and Push

The tug boat is small, strong
and mighty of heart
As it chugs up
the river of life
pulling more than it’s weight
—————————-
Meanwhile…
Pushing the river up the hill
is a lesson in futility
As it wears out
the biggest
even the mightiest of hearts

Start Your Engines

In the company of the Muse
And a troupe of her affiliates
(or is it her initiates?)
The air vibrates with enthusiasm
Creative epiphanies sparking
In the air like mini-lightning
———-
One session –  a jolt from the starter
Revved up for a daytrip of ideas
———-
Regular gatherings
Keep the engines running
On a symbiotic think fuel
And maintained by heart mechanics

Open Arms

When the hair on my neck
stands straight
I open my arms
shine the love
and breathe
Mmm… the sweetness
of Spirit flowing through
Then I look into the heart 
of that little one inside
How could you feel
anything but love
for this child?

Heart blooms

March your conviction
borne of the heart
into the garden
of joy and peace
 
There it blooms…
• • •
 
I am the seed
of peace in my life
I tenderly nurture it
growing peace 
in the tendrils
of my being
in the branches
of my heart
 
Sending peace seeds 
like fairy fuzz 
carried on the breath
out to the world
