If your hands are full of hate
You can’t receive peace
If your heart is full of bitterness
You have no room for love
If your mind is full of fear
You can’t think of paths as clear
If you hang on to history’s baggage
You can’t fly into promised lands
Sometimes loosing is not a loss
If you are opening and making room
For what is yet to come
What weights you down
Is not an anchor
When your hands are full
Your heart is empty
Your brain is blinded
Your intuition sidelined
You can’t receive
If you don’t let go
Of what weights you down
To release
Is to receive, and be freed
The flower bloomed
Because of dirt
Through shit and gloom
Because of hurt
The more dirt some threw
The more the flower grew
Some called it dirt
The flower called it fertilizer
Than went on to Bloom
New Year New Me
as if the old me was not me
as if I have to renounce
or never pronounce
what created, molded, taught,
and shaped
who I be
New year resolutions
turned into absolutions
but only if and only
if you actually meet them
I am me
this new year
I’ll be me
next new year, I’ll be me
stronger, wiser, better, faster,
resting, doing, achieving
failing, succeeding
adding subtracting
adjusting
Not because it’s a new year
Not because it’s a new me
but because I know life changes regardless
there is no pause
no new year needed to change
or stay the same if that works
Thankful for the blessings
The lessons
The messes
The things that molded my surroundings
The things that folded abiding
The experiences turned titanium
The mistakes turned to pages
The beginnings finally ending
My attitude is gratitude
diminished for no one
knowing my worth
because sometimes peace, love, abundance, worth,
is shaped through scorn
Winter to Spring
Spring to Summer
Summer to Fall
Fall to Spring
Clockwise, Counterclockwise
Seeds Bloom
Seasons Change
Time Flies
Nothing Changes
Everything Changes
Tragedy~Triumph
Death~Birth
Mourn~Celebrate
Life Happens
Ready or Not
Regardless
Do Life Anyway and Regardless
If you do, someone talks
if you don’t, someone talks
if you do, someone talks
if you sit, someone talks
if you stand, someone talks
if you are silent, someone talks
if you speak up, someone talks
if you hide, someone talks
if you take up space, someone talks
if you dull, someone talks
if you shine, someone talks
Don’t sit, stay silent, hide, or dull yourself, someone talks
Do stand, speak up, take up space, shine, let them talk
No permission required, unapologetically
Drippings of this world
dripping to my core
drip drop drip drop
words flowing through the wind
sights enhancing the air
feelings connecting words
words connecting meanings
meanings connecting signs
signs connecting visions
visions connecting creations
drip drop drip drop
dripping kindness, love, peace, abundance
healing, wealth, wellness
dropping scorns, hate, conflict, scarcity
hurt, ill-fated disease
drip drop drip drop
into the next realm
I choose to release
I choose to receive
Death is imminent
but so is birth
failure is part of life
success often follows failure
everything comes to a close
and other doors open
what goes up, must come down
but what goes down, must come up
beginnings have an ending
and endings are beginnings
the ashes that were left in the forest
are fertility for trees to grow
mourn the end, if you must
rise from the fire and begin
that’s life
We are but a moment in life
we are born into circumstances
influenced by environments
shaped by words and thoughts
developed by our own beliefs
we morph through life
and if we are wise enough
we learn, accept, and grow abundantly
regardless
we are but a moment
granted life on earth
