  • Reality Tea Cup (Poem)

    Steam rises from the tea.

    Consider these things.

    When I lift the tea cup, I do so with wonder.

    I do not think, “oh, if only I had a different vessel!”

    When I sip the tea, I do so with appreciation.

    I do not think, “oh, if only this were a different drink!”

    This is the cup; this is the tea.

    Right here; right now; where I am in this moment.

    I drink with gratitude and enjoyment.

  • The Dance (Poem)

    Do I sit here in quietness and contemplation?

    I can do that, yes.

    But right now I want to MOVE!

    I hear the music and the beat,

    And my body says dance, dance, dance

    While you’ve got this chance, chance, chance.

    And I feel the joy and the laughter

    All around me in the songs

    Healing all the wrongs

    (Not just mine but the world’s)

    I want to explode with wonder.
