Doorway
Strong emotion grips sometimes
Sneaking up sans rhythm or rhymes
Feeling of empty deep in the soul
Longing to fill up a big empty hole
Regardless of study awareness grace
It comes to you fills up your space
Sometimes pointing to a specific cause
Sometimes from what once was
As you sit in sadness that is
Try sending away it’s not your biz
Forget it won’t happen can’t chase it away
Can’t rush ignore distract with play
Longing holds lessons pay attention
Comes a voice giving direction
Listen the whisper inside
The voice friend ally guide
Heed direction it asks you to take
Honor the message wrapped in heartache
Trust your reality go deep explore
Follow go deep it leads to a door
What sadness are you experiencing?
What is the voice inside the sadness saying about action you need to take or a relationship needing healing?

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.
