The Search

The Search

having arrived at
this temporary perch
surveying the landscape
before continuing the search

where can it be found?
the beauty , the peace
without looking within
it will never be reached

A Vision of Suffering

A Vision of Suffering

a vision of suffering
woke me this morn
an artificial face
from the one that was born

someone well known
a teacher of sorts
had altered their face
false beauty contorts

no longer compassion
or love can be seen
life’s journey erased
its expression unseen

as if now a mask
that covers the soul
a purposeful change
what was their goal?

seeking perfection
in a vehicle still new?
the importance of how
others see them as true?

perhaps of importance
is how we see ourselves
without total acceptance
into suffering one delves

beware of this pathway
for it leads one astray
and can constantly cause one
to fix what’s not “okay”

Capacity to Change

Capacity to Change
so many human abilities
let us focus on one
the ability to change
what we do or have done
the capacity to change
still remains unrecognized
a capacity untapped
for a future revised
why do we not own it
our capacity to change?
surely there are no blockages
it really does seem strange
we know we’re at the tipping point
a delicate balance held
the science and prophecies tell us
its time for wisdom and gifts to meld
our capacity to change
is our ticket to secure the future
a world of peace and harmony
found by becoming a rerouter
a different path, a different choice
abandoning old patterns…
curious to see the consequences?
change then watch what happens
