Grounded: A Poem

This is a poem for when the world feels too big. May you always be grounded in love.

Grounded in Love




"Grounded"


when the winds of terror
threaten to sweep me
out to space

let me remember gravity
let my feet embrace
solid ground

when the world feels too big
and the vastness of the sky
pulls me too far beyond

let my feet remind me
I am stable where I stand
I am safe and down to earth
I am grounded in love




This Moment: Clouds and Piddling with the Little Things

The Little Things
This Moment

It’s the little things in this moment that make a good life.

Experience this moment
as birds fly high,
so high they seem to touch
the clouds,
their wings skimming
the cottony tufts,

while down below
my neighbor piddles,
the tinkering of tools
drifting above the soft
country music.

Consider this moment
as the sweet scent of hay
drifts across the fields
tickling my nose,
the nicker of horses
delighting my ears,

while a bicyclist
spins past me
with a nod and a smile,
pedals singing as they
whirl and twirl.

It's the little things
in this moment...
insignificant,
seldom acknowledged,
often unnoticed,
or quickly forgotten,

these little things
in this moment
are solid ground,
forming the foundation
of a good life.
