Tired, Worn, Weary
Was the journey worth taking?
Soul mates are impossible to find
It was meant to be
Meeting of minds and souls
It is a rarity
Crossing of our paths
Hummingbird stops mid-flight
Long beak and small form
He teaches me to be mindful
He teaches me to be joyful
He teaches me to love my family
He teaches me to love my body
He teaches me to open my heart
4 decades ago a ceremony took place,
That defined my destiny in this space;
4 decades ago hymns united two souls as they prayed,
In the dark on a Kayak in the ocean I ventured,
It is a moonless and starless night,
My mind longs for a challenge,
Isn’t this work arduous, I probe?
Obligations of the day are essential for sure,
Completions of chores is crucial to the core,
I no longer wish to be a prisoner of my past,
Every dawn begins a new phase;
I no longer wish to dwell on misgivings of yesterday,
Today, I wish to embark on a new way;
