I have admonished
Tell your story
I have done so
And then
Feeling conspicuous
Stopped speaking
This is out of balance
Thank you
For remindering me
I have been happy to listen
To read your letters
Lexical hugs
With arms of script
Forgetting in my replies
You want to hear from ME
This is out of balance
Thank you
For remindering me
I have been chastised
By engaging passion
Writing, singing, dancing
Tasting this joy at times with guilty lips
As I learn/teach to accept blessings
And remove my gilding of bliss
Simple is the balance
Thank you
For remindering me
I have felt stained
By the past in my present
Riders on the bus of my life journey
I kicked them off the bus
And they stand there at the stops
Waiting as if they have the fare to board again
Memory is the balance
Thank you
For remindering me
With words, song & prayer, TiMo
