I am finally learning
to live with less
but in this case
less does mean more
I cannot tell you
how much less leads
to so much more
But refocusing your lens
from others to yourself
you begin to see
so many new things
so many different possibilities
for happiness your happiness
Being alone happy alone
is not the end
that so many think
Being alone happy alone
is a newly discovered
hallway chock full of
doors to where you
will never ever know
until you open one

Home
I have rediscovered happiness
having long ago been
taught but recently forgotten
A home that reflects
you a refrigerator filled
with fresh food and
love in your heart
This home my home
is welcome to all
Come in kick off
your shoes get comfortable
and only ever bring
your love with you
I’ll provide the rest

Imagine a life with
little or nothing except
insight and wisdom maybe
a very few comforts
a bit of this
a bit of that
but not nearly enough
to put together even
a simple recipe whether
it be meatloaf or
relationship so now what
Imagination the idea of
making due with what
one has and when
what has is insight
and wisdom everything else
becomes exactly what it
is meant to be
And not what it
was ever supposed to
DoDoDo
Eventually things do
they just do
what they do
I stopped long
ago making things
do anything else
Making things do
what they’re not
is fool’s gold
It looks good
but just scratch
Let things do
the things they
do don’t make
them anything more
they will do
as they are
Art
Paint your life
with broad strokes
and let definition
up to others
Always be grand
full of color
warm and welcoming
and let others
decide what you
are for always
you will either
be their everything
or just another
painting passed by
