TO SISTER ONESELF

TO SISTER ONESELF

I come from within my Self
there is the seed
I planted
long before I became
ME.

I continue to journey
loving my Self
along the way.
I offer kind thoughts
to my past,
send forth dreams
to my future,
love my Self
in this present.

In an eternal dance
I go step
by precious step.
I celebrate Me ...
I embrace who I am.

I leave a bit of Me
behind ...
to sprout
to grow
to bloom
in her own time

Embraced by the All
of Me.


for you! My Soul Sister
Sharron Katz!

IT'S NOT ENOUGH

IT'S NOT ENOUGH

I can't be smart enough
or pretty enough
or mechanical enough
at all.

Though books stay open
and make-up applied
and cars get fixed
I still fall ...

I fall short of my dreams
and short of my hopes
and short of the expectations
of all.

It's not enough to be me
it's not enough, I can see ...
It's never enough -
down I fall.
