A Message to Our World

A Message to Our World

to us
from us
inhabitants of our world

for us
because of us
for we have created this world
this world we live in

take a moment
a precious moment
and feel into what exists
take a moment
and question the answers
for we live in the very midst

in the midst of chaos
and how to survive
challenges daily
that affect our lives

all lives
all life on Earth
how can we surf
and create a wave of reciprocity?

what have others gifted to us?
how can we reciprocate?
not in kind but kindness?
how can we enhance another’s life
simply by being aware of their strife?

let us begin
this challenge we will win
thru love and determination

Vote in the New

Vote in the New

i have cast my vote
and given hope
to the youth and times beyond

our future sakes
have lots at stake
and the young must lead the way

confident and clear
know they will steer
a course so all may thrive

they are the new
and are here to do
old ways no longer apply

given our support
as their cohort
we’ll not just survive
we’ll thrive

Opportunity

Opportunity

an opportunity sometimes arises
in what feels like once in a million years
to ignore it would be a sacrifice
where we would instead manifest our fears

leadership is earned and admired
when it is delivered from the heart
such leaders are rare and distinguished
by their ability to stop and restart

to stop and examine the present
to see and hear who we are
to understand the suffering
to seek solutions then lead as a star

a star that shines the light of compassion
and the ability to light in us
the hope and trust in deliverance
with a restart that we see as a must
