Quantitative/Qualitative

Quantitative/Qualitative
quantitative measurement
is in a decline
old ways of comparing/judging
to which we can no longer align
how much?
how many?
what is it worth?
more than a penny?
enter the new
the qualitative design
feeling into the quality of something
and can we align?
qualities of integrity
of peace and of joy
awareness of its usefulness
its beauty and the presence of love
the importance of sharing
of our gifts, our own qualities
and wanting all we dream of
to be enjoyed and accessible
by all
responsible for our perceptions
as viewed from our hearts
all connected, interwoven
let us now start
with
integrated abundance
the dance of life

One Word at a Time

One Word at a Time
thank you for our lives
and the opportunities given
now asking for help
in making decisions
with open awareness
we now embark
moving into the light
and out of the dark
what to leave behind
now that all can be seen?
how to gather together
as one humanity-being?
surrendering to
the present and presence
allowing the future
to become like a sentence
one word at a time

Jasmine

Jasmine
Persian yasamin
now global, the aroma of this vine
pleasured as a fragrance or tea
our senses are refined
here we explore how
scents can be mood-altering, medicinal
where they can take us
is unlimited, unconditional
how often do we experience
and deepen our sensitivities
slowing down, meditative
extracting from simplicity?
