Uplifting
Uplifting
Do you need a lift?
I'll give you a hand.
Won't let go until
you're able to stand.
Always remember-
reach out to others.
Don't pass up a chance
to help another.

As I

the scene,
the scene

Growing Cycles
Growing Cycles
The bud and bloom
sit side by side.
The bloom shows
the bud its future.
Two blooms
sit side by side.
Then, one's petals
begin to drop.
A bloom
sits alone
until a new
bud grows.

What Will Unfold?
What Will Unfold?
I wonder what
will unfold
Who will come
Who will go
What will be given
What will be taken
What will be made
What will be broken
If I will shrink
If I will grow
If I'll be timid
If I'll be bold

At the Center
At the Center
The center of the
flower forms first.
The petals grow
around it.
They have a
longer reach,
but all that they are
starts with the heart.

As the cloud moves
throughout the sky,
pieces
of itself
are left behind.

Stone Wear
Stone Wear
When I get a
stone in my shoe,
it hurts so much
I have to stop.
It feels like a rock
that must be
shredding my sock.
Imagine my shock
when I turn my
shoe over and out
drops a fragment
that I can barely see.
How could such pain come
from something this size?
Because it injures me
stride after stride.

Look Inside
Look Inside
I try to look inside,
but what's outside disrupts me.
I wish that I could hide,
but that won't solve anything.
What's inside and what's outside are related.
I have to look inside,
and there is no place to hide.

Keep Searching
Keep Searching
Look closely.
This task calls
for scrutiny.
Cover all the
ground until
an answer
is found.
