About the Poetry
All of the poems in this blog are spirit-inspired. Every word came to me each day for a full year while in deep meditation. I simply wrote what I heard onto a pad of paper in my lap with eyes closed – meaningful, multi-stanza verses in mere minutes. I was unaware of each poem’s theme until I transcribed it later word for word. Each day brought new and wondrous discoveries about the world beyond our five physical senses, incredible wisdom, and messages of hope which I share with you in this blog. The last poems received are displayed below on this page, but the entire collection of 365+ poems are archived here in the left-hand column. You can search by topic or keyword using the search box in the upper left corner. May you find among them just the right message which speaks to your heart.
Poem #323 - Patience
Patience is a virtue -
Knowing everything can wait.
When there is only here and now
Then nothing can be late.
You say to others, “Do it now.”
But this is by your rules.
You’d find you could be more relaxed
If you practiced other tools.
Dictate not how things should go;
Whether they be fast or slow.
For how are you the one to know
When you see only from below?
So many things they interact.
Life’s not just about you.
You’re just one facet of the jewel
Where others may shine, too.
Sometimes you sparkle, sometimes not.
Sometimes it’s others’ turn.
By asking how you all do fit,
There’s much that you can learn.
I love the image of the jewel...and facet, shine, and sparkle... "You're just one facet of the jewel." Lovely poem from the Council of Poets today to remind us to be patient with ourselves and others. "By asking how you all do fit, there's much that you can learn."
