Capacity

Capacity
we are blessed
with an infinite capacity
to love
to learn
to communicate
time to wake up
time to connect
time to discern
what we want to learn
and imbibe

Nature’s Way

Nature’s Way
left to her own freedom
Nature has her own way
responding to her surroundings
she can go dormant or play
a dormant stage
allows for some rest
only to be woken up again
by some change that suggests
a time to burst forth
to bloom and to grow
to sprout something new
from the seeds the wind sows
to create a new landscape
in water, on lands
with the beauty of ever changing
and of anchoring the sifting sands

Preoccupied

Preoccupied
let us monitor our thoughts
for its often or not
we will find ourselves
preoccupied
is it what we woke up with?
is it what we’ve left undone?
is it the chaos around us?
is it simply the sum?
precious is the child’s way
ne’er a worry, just play
yes to the focus
of having fun each day
