What gets left behind
with our unmade minds
forever rushing?
What do we leave behind
if we did not take the
the time to notice?
What is no longer mine
because neither you nor I
could take our time?

look around
Be thankful
for what you have, for
what you have to let go of,
and for those who are still
with you. Gratitude comes
in many forms. Look around.
Be thankful.

cloud songs
It is only silence and only
for now, a minute or three
but who is counting?
Enough, for now.
Slight Repose, a little grace,
enough until you have
found your place. Might be
morning, or the end of the day,
yet it is time to yourself anyway.
For now.

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

Success is subjective.
How we measure ‘success’ varies at each point of a life. Everyone judges success differently: financially, professionally, artistically, spiritually and morally.
How one interprets success can be as challenging as how you construe a horoscope, a poem, or bible passage. Clarification is not always obvious, or apparent, in day-to-day living.
What is success?
What is sustainable?
What is routine to some can become a rut to somebody else. Perhaps sticking to my own practice or pursuit is success enough?
My horoscope always gives me something to think about.
