Without feet firmly planted on the earth
One becomes subject to the whim
Of the winds’ free flow
No choice, nary chance to stop
The eternal dance of life
Without the sense of Floor
Without our head/ spirit in the sky
Upright, alert, and peering forward and wide
We can lose sight of the valent reality
The invisible present which surrounds
The sacred space wherein we grow
In which our common presence abounds
Without Love and Compassion
Resident in our Heart
We have no compass,
And only arbitrary direction
Yet storms will still occur
In the air, on the ground,
And within connection
Take in stock the air, the ground, the things unseen
Know not fear, rather rely on that as we know in deed;
Just as we live, we live out our chosen dream

A poet's contest with a twist
Use the words in this long list
Author's puzzle - mental schism
Solved by quoting pearls of wisdom
Writing verse with rough iambi
Valentines the namby-pamby
Sugar cane is often bitter
Sweet instead banana fritter
Shellfish debt is right to fear
Mollusc IOUs are dear
In winter cess or gong will ice
Come the spring it won't smell nice
Those who talk soliloquies
Centralistic - ill at ease
Mostly truth - a bit of flam
Buoyant spirits just a scam
Olive stuffed with pepper sweet
Pimola - shun a tasty treat
Broken clock might go tic tac
Til ending life upon the scrap
Peer at life - myopic squint
Essence lost - the meerest hint
I've met the task - I've got all ten
By breaking words up now and then
Spelling strange and meaning hookie
Least they could be fortune cookies
