Silence no chattering mind
Noisy chorus left behind
Expectation of your lover’s kiss
Soaring heavenly promise of bliss

Words dancing in brain
Synapses connect play a refrain
Waiting for you to be kind
Joy wanted hoping to find

How to know pathway is clear
Road emerging grins ear to ear
Is this channel a guide you need
Heaven sent providing god speed

Encounters unravel a layer of dust
Beyond resistance step into trust
Follow heartbeats heeding your rhyme
Delay patience in this quickening time

Pure joy of living quiets your mind
Yesterdays challenges recede behind
Honor trajectory time and space
You are blessed with elegant grace

Meeting destiny unscathed unbowed
Pinnacle rises above the crowd
Brass ring quested so many years
Grab it now beyond tears and fears

What do you do to quiet your monkey mind and become a mindful observer?

What value will mastering the chatter bring?

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.
