Some draw
Strength from
Passion
Others from
Tranquility
Both are not
Only valid
But critical

The deepest victory
Every time we learn
A candle is lit
Against the darkness
Every time we teach
A Sun is lit
Burning that darkness
Struggles
sad how often
I struggle
seeking what’s
in my
heart
Parenting Frustrations
Clothes,
Simply…
Just clothes
Arguments burst forth
And I cant….
Children fighting
Like this thing
Defends innocent
Lives
No willingness to
Give, to attempt
Anything outside
The preconceived
“I won’t find
ANYTHING” in this
Place I’ve not yet
Seen.
Frustrated at my
Failure…
No understanding or
Trusting in my
Experience
All I’ve done
All I am;
Worthless
I am tired
Seeking Elegance
Seeking elegance
Not a garish consumption
But deep quality
Finding Balance
Seeking out balance
I am the light and the dark
Embracing the Zen
Seattle’s Dish
Oh teriyaki!
Your sweet, delightful flavor
So many choices
The sun has set
Sun set a while ago
Darkness fills the air
Comforting: I find it so
Freed from sunlight’s care
A Wretchedly Wet Day
This wretchedly wet day
Dankest dreariness
Spring’s misery
Exceeding the expectations
Of even Eeyor
An Afternoon In Seattle
In the afternoon
A warm cup of tea helps me
Make it through the gloom
