Softness
Keys to a purposeful life
Smiles aplenty minimal strife
No fear of future remorse for past
Security you feel will last
No chatter dancing on brain
Sleeping a quiet refrain
Those you love safe from harm
Those you love keep you warm
Life and nature congruent
Activities seem so fluent
Joy from inside
Smooth in stride
Smile reflects inner glow
Surroundings enthrall you so
Mirror what’s inside
Big hearts carry pride
Happenings around at times painful
What you long drives only gainful
Pulled or twisted by fate
Perspective fills your plate
Grail conquering inner space
Address all concerns you face
Can people around the world
Step out of incessant swirl
Know giving is real
Enjoy that good you feel
Nurture seeds expand broadcast
Beaming all over make it last
When we do earth will change
Every cell will rearrange
Simple blessing for each day
Hold onto your shining way
What do you do to make each day good?
How do you shift focus from self to others and what do you like about that?

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.
