I honored the quiet spaces within my heart
By allowing a gentle peace to cover all my cares
The storm raged on outside, within
And through it all
I was calm

Superior
Zero empathy
Infinite ego
Always right
Every single time
Never wrong
Superior in every
Possible way
The whole world
Is not worthy

Lamingtons
This is the evil sight that welcomed us at work today. A belated Australia Day special. Lamingtons, because Australia!
(And the missing one was mine 🙂 )
Canvas Of Words
Poetry is
The air we breath
The life we live
The dreams we dream
Poetry is
A symphony
A ballet of dance
A canvas of words
Poetry is
All
And nothing
And everything in between
Small Mercies
Sunrise
Seat on bus
Air conditioner
Life
Floating
With a clenched fist, I tried to cling to everything that would support me in this world, but the tighter I clung the more it all slipped away, until finally I let go, my hands opened and found myself not falling but floating.
Imprinted
I took your hand within my own
And held it softly while you cried
My heart leapt out to dry your tears –
Your pain imprinted on my soul
eavesdropping
a young child’s voice speaking to her father breaks my reverie
as I listen from another space
the conversation wrapped
with respect and filled
with love and the
thought floats
through my
mind
i chose the best father for my offspring

Mad Man
Let us
Enjoy the sunsets
Sunrises
Flowers
Blossoms
Petals
Poetry
While we have them
And let us
Sleep soundly at night
Knowing that man has created
Weapons of such mass destruction
That it could reap the kind of horror
Not even imagined in the minds of humanity
And that the codes of such terror
Are held securely in the fist
Of one elected
Mad man
