a daily breath...

A thought du jour, my daily breath includes collected and conceived observations, questions of life, fortune cookie philosophies, reminders, messages of peace and simplicity, unsolicited advice, inspirations, quotes and words that got me thinking. They may get you thinking too . . .

Mondays are just young Fridays

What happens when you step away 

from the everyday, for a while 

(or longer)?

A new locale, an unfamiliar bed, an 

alternative view overhead 

there is always another way instead;

at least there will be this week.

Even a wristwatch looks different today 

for deadlines have no purpose or place 

this week. 

A well-deserved break, to say the least.

cloud songs

What of today, tomorrow

or next week?

   What about the weary,

the impoverished, and the meek?

   What becomes the answer or

the validation that you seek?

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

it only takes
                       one step
you’ve taken many before
you got there
                       somehow
   still
        you keep going

            one step at a time

your direction changes
haphazardly
or with purpose
     drawn to the action or
                                silence
doing what you believe is
right
         or proper

many times your steps
don’t align with others
                     that’s okay
                     it is fine

each of us is going
                        somewhere
all of us have somewhere
to be
         our paths may cross
diverge
              then disappear

    but we all leave a mark
