Gifted

To give without 
expecting any return
response or reply
is a grace
to be invisible
without others knowing
what where when
is itself abundant
to share generously
whether it’s time
or an ear
or a shoulder
is always an
act of prosperity
to give then
without is gratitude
for having much
to be gifted

Earth

And bubbles bubble 
breaking the surface
sighs I think
of times gone
dark things settled
and breaking down
becoming rich earth
in which plants
and lily pads
will soon bloom

Fireflies

It’s now when 
the morning shadow
hovers and covers
and the sun
peeks through windows
some little spy
in the sky
and everything else
all around me
glows like bulbs
belonging to fireflies

Change

People have 
a bazillion
solid reasons
why they
shouldn’t change
and there’s
only ever
going to
be one
reason why
they can
and most
will stop
looking for
it because
suffering with
what is
is easier
those who
quit themselves
will always
be the
ones who
love wondering

For

Gratitude isn’t 
very grand
dreams are
and wishes
can be
but gratitude
like kindness
is frequently
very simple
and quiet
just a
thanks for
