Permission

May the rain, wash away excess
May the sun, shine through clouds
May the colors arch over us
May the plants thrive
May my eyes, discern nuances
May my ears, listen to all voices
May my mind, accept scarcity 
May my heart, be full 
May we thrive together.

Freedom

Off I go to do
What was once familiar
Swim, leave a note, drive
Freedom is a privilege
White lined with debt
My blood runs red
My eyes see
Through accumulated 
Prejudice
My blood flows 
Like the water 
In which I swim
Off I go to do
What I want 
Without a thought 
Of another
Freedom is a privilege
Masked weighted with debt
My blood runs red
My heart beats  
Through attacks of
Prejudice
My blood flows 
like my tears
through all that matters. 

Continue reading Freedom at Abbe Rolnick.

Inside Out

The journey begins
No one sees
Silent obstructions
Thoughts churn
Mental gymnastics
Circular fermentation
Stretched till
The journey emerges
Thoughts 
Released 
Inside Out

Unmeasured

Seasons never ended
The cycles were one
Sunrise, sunset
Wind, rain, snow
Falling leaves, greenery
Flowed in our soul
Time, weather, climate
The earth, the skies
Smelled, tasted
Visible, audible
Unmeasured 
Seasons never ended
The cycles were one.

Presence

A gift of 
Attention
Goalless
Reward
To be seen
To be felt
No action 
Required

Departures

When I’m gone
My mark remains
A raised eyebrow
A twirl of energy
More words than 
Yes’s and No’s
My smile kisses
My hand encases
My thoughts continue

Creators

Sculptors chisel away
Frame with wire
I mull characters
Mold a story
Art in all forms
Challenges norms

Tools of the Trade

Tools of the Trade

Tools of the Trade

My belt needed a notch
You handed me a leather punch.
My necklace broke
You linked the chain with a scrunch.
My light bulb flickered out
You climbed a high ladder
My dresser leg disconnected
You drilled in a new screw
Tool of the trade matter

Life’s recipe

Life’s recipe

Life's recipe

A puff of liquid love
To sauté the soul.
A sweet pungent wine
To zest the sauce
Seasoned with years of discovery
Layered with surprise

Compass

Compass

Compass


A moral compass imbedded within

Waivers

A Fluctuation of opportunity

Till the hand tips

Away from selfish

Accumulations

Toward heartbeats of humanity
