Dancers
In the preciousness of days
Pause mend habitual ways
Inside lie answers
Many selves the dancers
Something missing there is gain
Beauty living in the pain
Empty feeling is expected
Adjustments then resurrected
Sadness leans over a ledge
Beats falling off the edge
Authenticity takes courage tact
Living is a high wire act
Engage fully each moment
Each step an atonement
Rarely more than you can carry
Though at times it seems scary
Keep going make your mark
Heal be good to your heart
Task always of current times
Making reason with your rhymes
Are you apart from something important – partner, job, profession, community, family?
Have you explored your self-talk about what happened, what to learn and digest to move on?

I have always been a seeker, always looking for the answers to what seekers ponder. I can remember Dr. Maxwell Maltz and Psychocybernetics; Dr. Carl Rogers On Becoming a Person. Moving through my legal training and practicing law the focus was always about people and how to better their lives. All that searching, reading, studying and introspective work culminated in this collection of daily readings for seekers.
My work in the world has progressed from fighting legal cases to mediating divorces to helping people understand the essentials of relationship and collaborating to these poems. How can we collaborate effectively and work with each other in harmony to create the world we seek. How can we mindfully enable this world to become a place that works for all.
My prayer is that through introspection using these poems as a guide we can all grow together in making the world the Heaven on Earth we all aspire toward.
