247 kissing cousins

Mountains kiss

The rosy sky.

Ruddy planets

Watch.

All is well

In our part of the galaxy.

246 tribe

I have not been cast adrift

In this life,

Like some lone traveller

Destined

To solitary paths.

I am the product

Of a 

Thousand

Thousand

Loves.

And I am

Raised up

On the shoulders

Of

Giants.

245 pause

There

Is always time,

To share

A moment

With friends.

To sacrifice that

Is to lose

Your soul.

244 jewelled joker

Mother Nature,

At her 

Maternal best,

Constantly reminds me

To get

With the jest.

The absurdity of Life,

The inevitableness of Death,

Tells me

Always

To savour each breath.

243 mystic jungle

Although my path is paved,

With sidewalk and street cafe,

In a darkened alley

Wildness calls.

Sweetly dangerous,

It reminds me

There is

Always

More to life

Than

This.

242 light

Long

Has Light

Held the Key

To Life.

From muted dawn

To fiery sunset

It unlocks

This day's

Door.

009 red

Perhaps

It is not by chance

That

The sands of the desert

Are stained

The red of Humankind's blood.

008 priceless

There will be a day

When all of Humankind

Realises

That what they took for granted

Was

In fact

More precious

Than they ever imagined.

007 vista

Sometimes

I am so caught up

In the Climb

I forget

To savour the view.

Sometimes

The reward is not

To arrive.

Sometimes

The greatest gift

Is steeped

In the beauty on the path

That I choose 

To perceive.

006 possibility

There are those dark nights

When I forget

I am much more

Than this skin

And these bones.

I look into the starry sky

And see

My Light

Reflected back at me.

005 tenderness

I step into

Divine flow

Whenever I

Reach out

With tenderness.

004 vantage

I choose 

That vantage point

From which I

Can see

The wonder

In the world

 Around me.

003 storm 02

I choose to face

My Storms.

I will not deny myself

The greatness

They can call from me.

002 convergence

No matter how

Divergent

The paths,

There is always

A way.

001 marvellous mind

Wonder not at Nature's Marvels

Her Imagination

Resides in your

Neural pathways

And manifests in your

Synapses.

To believe is to see.
