Beneath the Skin

Is there anything

more beautiful than a wise

and forgiving heart?

Perceiving beauty

takes an inward journey for

both beholder and beheld.

The Better Balm

Between cool waters

and cooling evening breezes,

Which balms the spirit better?

There is no better

balm than cool heads and warm hearts

in any kind of weather.

How do we begin

to transform the grapes of wrath

into communion wine?

Strip first, the bitter

skin of anger and vengeance,

then ferment the heart and soul.

Has not your heart’s path
tugged you to some places
your mind would deny?

My mind has often

played second fiddle in heart’s

long, meandering parade.
