I threaded a needle
I actually made happen
What was something impossible
Or so they said
In the scheme of
Things it’s not big
But please come on
Any victory no matter
Its size can be
Called miraculous when what
Happened is a surprise
Miracles are personal things
Given to those blessed
With faith and conviction

How
I’m declaring a miracle
The most powerful position
That one can take
When presented with problems
Is facing head on
And not looking where
You are but where
You want to be
Miracles happen in that
Gap that gray area
Between hither and nigh
The easiest way to
Get over there is
By imagining you are
Keep your eyes on
The prize for like
Beacon it will lead
You to your how
CreativeDiscipline
Artists are different though
They prefer their creativity
Over discipline especially when
Young until that is
When they age and
Realize that discipline is
Just as essential as
Creativity and then poof
Their creativity then becomes
The discipline they needed
DashDabPinch
A dash of this
A dab of that
A stir and swirl
Some heat some time
A quick cool taste
Some more of that
A little bit of
Something else and maybe
A pinch of thyme
This time and now
To simmer this is
The recipe of creation
Whether it be art
Stew or some soup
Maybe even a poem
Or maybe even love
Snowfall
There was one way
And then you discover
Another and then another
Life is both an
Amalgamation and an accumulation
Much like a snowfall
It always does start
With just one and
Pretty soon many and
Before you know it
That one becomes lots
Which gleefully leads to
Other things like snow
Days and sledding and
Shoveling and hot cocoa
And just simply watching
As snow like life
Falls and what do
You know eventually becomes
Something else entirely by
Surprise and by miracle
