Poetic Reflection

Sometimes I life

Sometimes I write

-

Writers write

Dreamers dream

Teachers teach

Screamers scream

-

Labels disappear

Silenced with bottles of beer

Daily habits fade away

Distracted by summer play

Dreams and visions

Guide to stride

-

A jack or master

A toe or leg

Balancing act or future regret

Clarity not there… yet

-

Doubt tests desire

Thoughts on fire

Embrace the mess

Singe the stress

-

When

Not if

Is

The word

-

No right or wrong

Always belong

— to the now

-

Walk the talk or

Talk the walk

-

Open heart and open mind

Follow the wonder and find

-

Learning to let go

Go — with the flow

Trust

Delay never a denial

-

Here to watch and learn

Not just work and earn

-

Six senses communicate

Magic in the world

Within a book

Or through eyes that look

-

Life teaching me in unique ways

-

Sometimes I life

Sometimes I write

- Thanks for being you-
