Grounded
Grounded feet on floor
Place I’ve not been before
Deep in body belly home
From the center I can roam
Path traveled tacks and stalls
Speeding mountains slamming walls
Midnight sweating hole in chest
Ongoing longing place to rest
Reclaim being that’s pure
Rearranged do not want more
Life in body challenges too
Earth a teacher wisdom school
Many resist process of living
Experience can be unforgiving
Engage embrace you that’s real
Let go defenses trust and feel
Birthrights gift a life sublime
Follow heart song enjoy time
Greatest knowing inside you
Deep in body friend lover too
Have a sense of being fully seated in your body?
Can you appreciate and pay tribute to the wisdom the body holds?

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.
