Elements of Life


I have not written as much in 2015 and 2016 and I have found my muse in the oddest of places.  A co-worker began giving me "the beginnings of haiku's"  and we alternate popping them out.  I realized the other day that I was being given a gift.  The chance to kick start my writing in the midst of work. The Mundane kick starting Creation.  Earth begetting Water.  A Concept I Believe in and preach.  The daily crap shoot of life isn't something we get through while waiting for the good stuff to happen.  It is how we create the good stuff if we are paying attention.

Haiku sampling:

Angry Orchard calls
your apples are fermented
Drink more. they miss you


Today's actual poem  :D

To Dare.
I see within me all I am
Both shadow and light
Intertwined as one
Pulsating with life and breath.

To Know.
I study the selves
Taking notes, watching choices, reactions.
Where is the comfort between
Desire and Habit.

To Will
Choices each day
Create and build these two.
Creating the Truth of the
One who contains them both.

To Be Silent.
Is to Know the
Dreams I Dare
To push through to Completion
Create Me as much as I Create Them.
