Cultivate Gratitude
As I note this day called Thanksgiving,
My mind slides along with reliving,
Times smiling and glad.
Times heavy and sad.
Gratitude, with joy and forgiving.

Big Sharing
An aspect that comes in Deep Sharing,
From words of one’s truth, no comparing—
Connection, so real.
Knowing that we’ll
Hold our shared time as “trust-bearing.”

Recommitment
If I really listen sincerely
I can get your message quite clearly.
Hearing exactly,
Not just abstractly
The real one; not one that is “nearly.”

Breathtaking Beauty
Such great joy came out of a short trip—
Connections and beauty could outstrip
Some fancified plan,
Though of a short span—
The time spent was really quite “blue chip.”

Play and Accomplishment
It really is fun to have play time!
Right now I am thinking it is prime
To laugh and to play.

Our hydrating option … iced twice, thrice.
With frost on the ground,
When shivers abound,
My preference is water with no ice.
Personal Creativity
Thinking about creativity,
Formed of one’s own sensitivity.
True beauty shows through.
Whatever you do,
Shows your particular artistry.

Personal Peace

What brings you to viewing a new lease
On how you are true

Learning by Wobbling
And when we are biking or walking,
And when we’re creating or talking,
We learn as we go,
Some quick and some slow.
What route can we take that’s unblocking?

Fun and Living Full-Out
We all came together to celebrate
Marriage: an official “starting-gate.”
We laughed and we cried,
We were dewy-eyed.
Our time to joyfully congregate.

For words that enhance
Your having shared talking and walking.
