Spinning

Spinning

Along the axis
Of worldly rotations
Continued motion
precludes inevitable
Emotions

The Spark of Light

The Spark of Light

Surprise yourself
A crack in the veneer
That takes your breath away
A view exposes
Another you
Who knows what lies within and beyond.
Let the radiance shine through.

Best is a Trap

Best is a Trap

What was, was
What is, is
And what will be, will be.
Change morphs over and over
Where are you in all of this?
Every moment counts
Because the “you” engages and deepens.
The experience needs no label of best
Let that rest.

Abbe’s Ruminations – September 2022

Abbe’s Ruminations – September 2022

I remember at age five walking in our new neighborhood with my 6 ½ year older sister. I had the idea of knocking on the neighbors’ doors and asking if they had any kids we could play with. Nothing like announcing yourself, taking a risk, and not even knowing it. Sometimes there were kids our age but for the most part we got lots of cookies and smiles.

Wedding Dress

Wedding Dress

I gave away my wedding dress
The one with the open back
Puckered silk the color of 
Blue skies 
My waist indented
My neckline deeply V’d 
Exposing my heart
In the puckers I discovered 
A warm body needs the other soul
I gave away my wedding dress
Exposed I melted inward
Disappeared in the folds
I gave away my wedding dress
Which wasn’t mine but
Yours.

Penniless

Penniless

I came into this world
With nothing
I will leave with
Insights
Love,
Strength,
Confusion
Kindness
Understanding
Enriched

Begin

Begin

There are no redoes
In life
Only another day
to value
to respect
to try
tomorrow is a wish
Sun rise
Sun Set
Between is your challenge
To give joy
To grow
To understand

Continue reading Begin at Abbe Rolnick.

When One is More

When One is More

Smaller than an orange
Softer skin
And within
The Satsuma
Seedless sections
Delight with
A tart sweetness
A contraction

Voice

Voice

I crave spring
To hear the birds
Welcome the day
Their chirps
Mingle in a melodic choir
Even the wings of the hummingbird
Whispers a song
Of encouragement

Abbe’s Ruminations – August 2022

Abbe’s Ruminations – August 2022

Even when you step into life, chances taken aren’t always the ones you expect. The milestones in our life seem to have a plan with rules and the normal roles expected of us. I’m one for structure but I need flexibility within it. How to say yes, how to say no, on what basis.
