Tenderly
I hope to be
A bit more mindful of the needs
Of other folks,
But also me,
So I can live more carefully,
Holistically,
Spiritually,
And lovingly.
Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!

If You Want to Care
If you want to care,
Then care for you;
After all, you’re human, too.
Go from still
To work and back;
You cannot give from what you lack.
Nourish now,
And later, give.
In doing don’t forget to live.
Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!

Another Kind
To sit in Peace
Is sweet Release
When all labors (even briefly) cease.
The feeling’s blessed
When taking rest,
In ways I never would have guessed.
Create a break,
A moment make,
Away from all you undertake.
You just might find,
As you unwind,
You’re doing work of another kind.

Cell
Knowing all I used to be,
How could I possibly love me?
Thorny branches grip my heart
And pierce me when I try to start
To give love to the parts of me
I hope no one will ever see.
Yet only if I face the pain
Will its hard grip begin to wane.
I will break free from their sharp hold
And heal my scarring from of old.
We all have our thorny cell,
That keeps us trapped inside our hell.
But all of us possess the key
That breaks our bonds and sets us free.
The key is that we self-forgive.
For in this life that we all live,
There’s no one who won’t make mistakes,
And we’ll keep on long as it takes
To learn our lessons and to grow.
That’s the reason, don’t you know,
For every failure and misdeed
To teach each person what they need.
