I just sold my car I was so over it-by far! My mood was always subpar Spending all that time driving over tar On Roads that have become an earth scar I was brainwashed Made to faire croire… There are so many other ways to get around… Buses. Trains. Trams. Metros. Even the street car. […]

Doing it right
Wanting to do it right Can keep us up all night Many an unnecessary war we incite When we allow our internal battles to ignite An avoidable and yet everyday fight This is a massive international plight It doesn’t take much to trigger us.. Make us bite When our insides are wound up so damn […]
I choose me
I choose my past I choose my SELF I choose me From this self I will no longer flee Nor try someone else to be I can now see.. how crazy its to be anyone else but..me! The flower doesn’t try to be a tree A petunia can’t be a sweet pea A fly can’t […]
more ease..please
A little more ease If you please No more if, when and then decrees My world of push has brought me to me knees I’ve passed through fight, flight and most recently freeze All in varyingly different degrees I’ve compared my insides to other peoples outsides- A recipe for disaster..my higher self agrees It’s only […]

The Gift of going slow
The gift of going slow Is something of a gift for those who live below The equatorial line We can learn so much but mostly grow From the inward glow That slowing down can bestow It allows us to move more gracefully …to be in the flow caring more about connection than making more dough […]
Mining Grief for sweet relief
making space for the truth of grief is hardly ever short, sweet and brief and yet its full expression brings such sweet relief in my opinion it can be the aperitif for full heart living as stunning as the coral reef we do not ask permission from a tea leaf or from the police chief […]
Power of the Pause
There is great power in the pause Yet it never seems to receive due applause There are many reasons for this cause Modern society has its issues as well as its flaws With the high cost of living and myriad bylaws We get caught in the trappings of the bourgeoise Eagerly awaiting the gifts of […]
What’s with all the Body Shame?
What’s with all the body shame? Who signed us up for this ridiculous game? Why should we aspire to look the same? Where did we inherit this habit so lame? We think it’s our fault-we’re to blame And yet the system creates a suffocating frame To achieve a certain look-that will bring us fame This is […]
