no more wallowing
no more wailing
no more floundering
push
self-pity aside

your emotions
your commotion
only need
an inventorying

let this summer super moon
illuminate your roots
point you in the direction
creating perspective
building balance
self-reliance & confidence

as one month ends
another begins
as one day
is tucked in
a new one
is on the horizon

a waterfall of vitality
spills from the darkened sky
revitalizing
…………nourishing
…………………..nurturing

go to the sea
surrender yourself to the surf
soak in

time to
stamp your feet
shout
let it all out
be aware
of your surroundings
your emotional out pouring
a private affair
no one else
really wants to hear
for they too
should be immersed
in their own purging

let

it rained

to soak the earth

it rained
…….. just enough
to hide the hurt

it rained
…….. just enough
to disguise the tears

it rained
…….. just enough
to camouflage fear

it rained
…….. just enough

the sea
welcomes
the lonely
…………the disenchanted
………………………..the disheartened
…………………………………the disappointed too
the waves
accepting those
who choose

to bathe
in the salt
to breathe the mist
to listen
……………as the sea speaks

lessons
of endurance
