Poetry to Inspire You
Sadness
give sadness a colour
what does it represent?
a shadow, a darkness?
light shielded or bent?
trapped in a space
no exit in view
lonely and sad
not knowing what is true
our emotions will surface
from past experiential links
and the only way to recover
is to change what we think

Loving Kindness
loving kindness is a natural state
an expression of goodness, an open gate
allowing the passage of time to come and go
allowing the variables to be in the flow
with acceptance, tolerance
and compassion

Water Time
she calls us to listen
to submerge in her depths
to observe her reflections
to taste her salty breath
the peace and the motion
the rhythm of waves
the lure to then travel
in leisurely ways
the waters envelop
the Earth like a skin
let us pause, let us honour
where life on Earth did begin
gifted time we give gratitude
to this precious resource
ours to protect and to cherish
this our life-giving source
