Premium Member Cap A Pie

Cap a pie, steady as she goes,
walk tighter than a dollar bill; 
When life’s banana peel arose? 
Cap a pie, steady as she goes;
Shuddery prose she will compose,
Jenga tower of dreams, be still! 
Cap a pie, steady as she goes,
walk tighter than a dollar bill.

Premium Member Grinding Start

I turned the key,
pressed the gas pedal.
The motor belched
the starter grated.

“No. Not today!
I can’t be late.
I’m teaching the class.
I have to be there!”

Our three-year-old
piped up from the back seat,

“Try it again, Mom.”

The motor coughed, caught,
settled to a steady purr.
My little two-cylinder Fiat,
slow, but steady as she goes,
took me everywhere.

Again, from the back seat,

“I knew it would start, Mom.
I prayed.”

Adventure Forward

This courage swirls independently...
climate change without rehearsal...

Steady as she goes...
into the great unknown...

a needy disturbed force crumbles...

self awareness realized...
she knows what you say and do...

She knows there is no one else...
there is no one else like her...

...And all else are aware...

...aware of your needs...

...your failures...

...I choose to venture forward...

...to adventure forward...

My inner known is waiting
there for me...
