I♦I
When
obscuring clouds pass on
revealing
the stainless sky
my
payment has arrived
long
before another poem
lands
here.
This
play at pretending
to
be
someone
or
pretending these words
were
ever mine
I
was going to say,
fell
away yesterday
but
remembering falls too
like
sunlight
along
outstretched branches
to
dance with leaf shadow
below.
How
do you remember
who
you are.
Do
you need for anything
to
be different
or
other than it is
right
now.
Or
do your thoughts
have
wings
like
the wide wingspan
of
forgiveness
holding
aloft
the
canopy of the heart
to
show meetings with others
already
at ease within,
each
offering their own flavor
added
to the taste
of
your own.
Do
you trust yourself
enough
to
honor all
of
who you are.
I♦I
Before
this poem passes
like
another breath
at
one with simply being
what
else can I offer today..
Perhaps
this next breath
as
close to me
as
your breath is
to
you right now
a
breath with a life
that
passes with each day
like
yours
a
breath
at
ease
with
having a life,
like
yours
breath
that moves
with
the life
I
am
the
breath of life
that
moves
in
the life
of
all.
