NAPKIN WORDS #81 2010
1. OR ELSE
In between our start, our finish, must be
our accomplishments.
Or else we fail – Not time, just ourselves!
2. LIFE – THE PROCESS HELPER
You are not alone.
We all have to go through today to arrive
at tomorrow.
If you need, walk with others. Almost all
shall try to ease the journey, for all must
also get from here to there!
3. HIDDEN BEAUTY
Quiet silence sat.
Calmness floated.
Contentment thrived.
Happiness of an imagining soul,
giggled at its future, laughed at
what it saw.
The inner being did not change, yet
a smile appeared!
4. THIS BOOK OF OURS
Experiences are its pages.
Life but its binders!
5. THAT IPOD INSIDE
The heart treasures those songs of life
which you wish to save, play, make them
yours!
6. A WOMAN IN MY VIEW
Where would life be without that magical
shrug of her shoulder, the wondrous flight
of hair, shaking her head in a fancy of love?
7. ZEN ASKING
The way for answers to flow so a
question becomes changed.
That is the Zen way of learning!
8. MATH
There is no subtraction if you live life
wisely.
It is up to you to add, multiply, to insure
that the sum totals who you are, who you
will become.
How others, once you are gone, calculate
your time, compute your history!
NEW YEAR WISH 2010/2011
Every New Year shared
with family, friends,
those you love,
adds another ring to
your tree of life.
My wish is for one hundred
years of joyous
celebration.
May your tree be free of disease.
May its trunk grow large,
with roots deep
and wise.
May its leaves shelter well
those legions certain
to gather, while
seedlings
float
gently,
renewing
your
name.
