Each morning
To write out another poet’s poem
To sit in stillness & ask all thoughts to enter
Each evening
To write out your own poem
To sit in meditation & ask all thoughts to fade
Between morning and evening
Become alive, become engaged in
First with yourself
Then with your lover
Finally with friends, old and new
Between yourself, your lover &
Friendships, old and new, offer hope
Inspiration, laughter & most of all, love
