Precious

Precious
precious
precious is life
is it not a miracle?
all we can do
all we can experience
all with the awareness
of simply being?
an experiential plethora
of beauty and abundance
consider it our duty to appreciate the beauty
and dance with a bun
do a bun dance
celebrating the bounty of life
precious and fun
this life we have done
and can live on so much more
from the awareness of before
into the potential that’s in store
as we move through life
our precious lives
opportunities to love
and to be
our full potential

Laugh at Thyself

Laugh at Thyself
laugh at thyself
there is humour in this
a quiet is disturbed
by the imaginative self
such a story-teller
making the script grow and grow
it takes a firm hand
to simply say NO
or is there a benefit in pretending
pretending we know the happy ending?
setting the stage in the life we know
we create as we flow
the choices are ours
paint the picture and jump in
the setting is familiar
action stage here
begin!

Abundance

Abundance 
abundance
so many words
an abundance of words
given to define
abundance
in our experience of abundance
so much can be taken for granted
the air we breath
the food we eat
the water we drink
the good health we enjoy
the beauty that surrounds us
the safety of our homes and communities
the remuneration we receive in exchange for our work
the presence of family and friends
let us be thankful
in the material sense of abundance
all that we own
all we have saved,  stored
all the gifts that we could give
all we do not use
how much is too much?
what can be shared or gifted
in the spirit of oneness?
in the personal sense of abundance
all that we are
all we have experienced
all we have learned
all the skills we have honed
what can be shared?
what can be offered?
in the spirit of oneness
is it not abundantly clear
we hold the answers
to eliminating suffering
to eliminating poverty
to eliminating loneliness
to helping each other
in the spirit of oneness
with the understanding
simply
i am another you
let us bring balance
into the lives of all
by sharing our abundance
