Part Six

Auspicious Birthdays come decennially. Evasion fights growth. Honour intentions. Jocose knowing leaves mankind nourished. Offer people quality, resist self-sabotage totally. Ubiquitous valour welcomes x-factor yearly; zestfully.

Rain

Water unleashed from clouds

Single droplets vying for position

Liquid colliding and merging

Chattering noisily over one another

Catching their breath on oxygen’s news

Determined to dampen

To soak to the skin

To cleanse us of ourselves

Full of promise

Full of intention

Splashing lavishly on life

BEing

BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing,

BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing,

BEing, BEing

BEing, BEing

BEing, BEing

BEing, BEing

BEing, BEing

BEing, BEing

BEing, BEing

BEing, BEing

BEing, BEing

BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing,

BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing, BEing.

Try not to think…

I am me, you are you, they are them over there

Observe those who don’t know, the ones that just stare

Keep an eye out for opinions, they fly dangerously low

Always move forward and don’t act like a schmo

 

Embrace any madness and lengthen your stride

You know what you know and there’s nothing to hide

Ignore what your head says, just listen to your heart

Life is to live, it’s not something to chart

 

Don’t ever let anyone put you in a box

That’s no way to live, it creates a paradox

Have a skip in your step and a wiggle in your tail

I can’t guarantee it, but I know you won’t fail

 

Dance with abandon, dance a jitterbug or two

Be all you can be, doesn’t matter what you do

Smile at your reflection, give yourself a big wink

Don’t think too many thoughts, in fact try not to think…

 

Let go of your ego, pack its bag, bid farewell

It’s rarely any help and can make you unwell

Be grounded and present, live life in the now

The amazing results will unfurrow your brow

Sublime surrender

The door opened

We saw each other anew

The door closed

We were enveloped within walls

Of our own creation

Faith pushed out of the bed

Making room for intentions

For real love

Spoken and felt

Urgent kisses

Heating our souls

Connecting deeply

With sublime surrender

My boss can drive me round the bend

My boss can drive me round the bend

Does his incessant moaning never end?

His outlook on life is often dour

And his views of others increasingly sour

 

It’s not my fault, I often scream

Why does he have to be so mean?

I always do the best I can

Others would have packed and ran

 

The problem here is definitely not me

I’m sure those who know him would agree

His ego rules more often than not

Which means his heart is often forgot

 

He doesn’t remember conversations we’ve had

Is his sole intention to make me feel bad?

Good job I know my own self worth

So generally I take his comments with mirth

 

My advice to others is to be, rather than do

Have a sense of self; know your own value

Always rise above the sneers and blame

Living life in the present, is the name of the game
