Wishing You Wild
My final words for 2021. Squeezed out of my heart, head and hands.
I need this for myself, to focus on what matters.
As always, I hope it has value to you too.
Wishing you health
And the heart
To help those
Slowed along the way
Wishing you weather
That does not
Flood, burn
Nor twist
Wishing you strength
To see
Truth and fact
And what is not
Wishing you endurance
To run the race
Dodging pitfalls positioned
For disappearance into despair
Wishing you balance
Not to flirt with vertigo
But to right yourself
When you fall (because you will fall)
Wishing you love
That mirrors back
The good of
Who you are
Wishing you joy
Laughter that fills
And makes your
Belly shake
Wishing you wonder
That stops you
In your tracks
And you are small again
Wishing you silence
Amid stridency
Buy, buy, buy
Never enough (always too much)
Wishing you vision
To know the way
To what matters
Now, always
Wishing you wild
For if there is wild
There is all
Of the above
Happy New Year dear community. 💙
