I have finally found my favourite shopping bag
the words upon it say "my poo grows trees"
Also depicted a cassowary below his bum a young shrub
I'm like the cassowary I make use of all my poos and wees
Both in the compost with vegie scraps and other useful "waste"
when the compost is dark and friable and fully broken down
I make a compost tea or add sand to make a seed raising mix
Fill buckets for my orchard to spread goodness all around
My efforts are rewarded as I harvest an abundance of fruit
mango paw paw grumichama sapodilla all organic fare
If you are ever in far North Queensland come and visit
for breakfast a bonanza I would love to share
Speak a present spell
I am healthy; at peace
My situation aligns
The cosmos answers
I am in abundance
My cup overflows
Cuhioned by crises
The cosmos answers
I am a pure maestro
Poetry writ often
Spells with words
The cosmos answers
I am a critical thinker
Morphing lived reality
Into options untapped
The cosmos answers
I am a Coach to many
Searching for direction
In dental careers and life
The cosmos answers
wealth prosperity abundance not synonymous
accumulation leads to conceit of rich
complex opulence
dualism anxiety
inferior-superior byzantines
wealth increases mentality illusions
fierce finance hoarding arise
this happens only in material plain
having does not guarantee prosperity
second always embrace aspects of being
relationship and active community —
when prosperity focused
simplicity flows, transparency results
philanthropic outlook gives
circulates
flourishes self and others
breath within breath clear
core strengthens
organically
prosperity, abundance a potency
in mentality
subtle vibrations move heart
slowed frequencies develop
transmuting third dimensional character
increases focus on spiritual as
starting point
abide quietly, knowing
abundance moves each sand grain
ear of wheat, water atom
every thread of chromosome
it moves in circles
live spirals in human flesh
giving back to family, community
ultimately to divine
fresh moulds are circulated
dances authentic
powers stability, serenity, peace
contentment births clarity
of godly purpose

Today we praise God's precious only Son
Who gave His life so that our lives live on
He suffered pain, being nailed to a cross
To the world it was a sorrowful loss.
Lonesome hearts are aware how it does feel
Mother Marys sore heart did never heal
From losing her resplendent precious boy
Who came from Heaven, her pride and her joy.
Upon angel wings that will never cease
Breath of God flows o'er the whispering breeze
To enter hearts with His love, joy and grace
From the creator of the human race.
Bless Jesus who is there to hear our prayers
To guide us, though we may be unaware
That He sees all and redeems every fall
With His salvation to one and to all.
Pray constantly all worldly wars will cease
Gloria in abundance, induce peace.
Abundance is not about having more.
Abundance is about having enough and knowing it.
This is harder than it sounds.
The culture says: you never have enough.
But more never makes you complete.
If you don't feel enough now,
more won't make you
feel enough later.
The practice of sufficiency:
Look at what you have.
Not what you lack.
Is it enough?
For this moment,
for today,
for your actual needs?
If the answer is yes,
then you have abundance.
Abundance is not a quantity.
Abundance is a relationship
between what you have
and what you need.
Abundance is the experience of enough.
And enough is always available,
always possible,
always a choice.
Either capitulate to Yeshua..Or go to hell.)

eight kinds of honey,
but none for the bees.
a pyramid of apples polished so bright
they reflect the security cameras,
their waxy skins sealing in
the taste of nothing.
The freezer aisle hums
like a god demanding worship~
so many doors,
so many choices.
We are drowning in the deep end
of shallow things.
What are we thinking?
Yesterday's feast was most extravagant.
So much variety pleasing one and all...
Reminded many are less fortunate.

There is a vision we hold,
It's value in what we've been told,
The reason so many souls are sold,
Working life away to acquire Gold,
Molding their existence.
What is its significance?
The difference from another stone,
Alone it does nothing,
Only brings in problems,
Robbing them of peace.
Others looking for a piece,
Greasing the greed in them,
Only shown we needed some,
A little crumb planting a weed.
Feeding families in need,
The shimmering greed,
Poisoning earths seeds.
Dirty deeds making enemies,
Turning beauty into pennies,
Keeping the people from getting any,
Many crying and dying creating scrutiny,
We have a Mutiny in reverse,
As the curse is lifted,
Only the gifted can see,
The truth behind money,
I think you'll find funny,
The value it is assigned,
Is defined within your mind,
Signed by the soul,
That's how it will roll,
Gold stole the power you hold,
Devouring a life you were told,
was about just growing old,
watching it all unfold.
Abundance comes in leaps and bounds
From Nature’s waters and its grounds
The air is filled with fowl as meat
And love is found in garden and street
The notes of the music of the universe
Are everywhere for one to hear
In forest depths or outer space
If one is deaf it really is perverse
Flowers once planted can seed themselves
And wealth increases by itself with time
God’s love grows stronger every day
With each and every prayer of gratitude you say
.
Abundance is yours naturally,
It is nature's ally,
It's why birds fly,
It's why you ask why.
You think you have to try,
Crying out for what you want,
Taunting your reality.
Not knowing it's already yours,
You try more and more,
Putting a wall between,
What is wanted,
To what is seen.
Abundance waits for a clean slate,
That's its natural state,
Love is never late,
Our dreams wait for us.
Bust down the wall,
You don't have to try,
If you already have it all.
There's a vision we hold,
It's value in what has been told,
The reason so many souls are sold,
Working life away to acquire gold,
Molding their existence.
What is it's significance,
The difference from any other stone?
You're only shown you needed some,
Just a little crumb is all you need,
To feed a family in need.
That shimmering greed,
Now poisoning Earth's seeds,
Dirty deeds making enemies,
Turning beauty into pennies.
Keeping people from getting any,
Only creating scrutiny,
Mutiny in reverse.
As the curse is lifted,
Only the gifted can see,
The truth behind money,
I think you'll find it funny.
The value that is assigned,
Is defined within the mind,
Signed by the soul.
Gold stole the power you hold,
Devouring the life you were told,
Was just about growing old,
And watching it all unfold.
Have you sold your life to gold,
What is the value you hold?
Mango limes and pomegranates
the world is turning tutti fruity
and I'm loving every minute of it

eyes dazed by magenta blaze
skin torn by piercing thorn
blood drop tickles zinc hole in morn
she knows her season is done
a petaling head will droop under afternoon’s Sun
abundance is a prime piano note
•¥¥•
frugal the piano notes sound
her head erect at midday
her season embraces her
with blood bleeding through as blush
her skin translucent calls
magenta gaze closes lids
It's very exciting,
These words you're reciting,
Inviting in abundance,
Such a fun dance with existence,
Escaping the dense feeling of lack,
Getting our power back,
As we stack moment after moment,
Knowing our present is the gift,
Split the rift,
Get ready to shift,
Drift with the momentum,
And enjoy the conundrum.
You always have some,
Air to breathe,
Creating another miracle through alchemy,
How so little can create exponentially,
Everything we need to be.
