The morning after
Having broken rules to join
Other sincere hearts

Cutting through the fog
Of anonymity: all

All Appreciation

"Inter-esse": to
Move between one's essence and
That of another

Breathe through the pain. There's 
No other way to get where
You are meant to be

Would emerge is your birthright. 
Let fulfillment in

Brings in the holiday beat
Ears close to the ground

Being truly heard, 
Dark things begin to lighten
Their grip on our hearts

Hearing your voice, we
Move forward in a lifelong 
March to peace and depth

Ever faithful each 
Day: early-morning quiet 
Time sets our soul's tone
