Courage

We do not have to learn courage,
for it is part of who we already are.
We only have to unlearn fear.

Serenity

Solitude has served me well.
Today tentatively,
I believe... more.
my grasp loosens ...a bit.
what is... is.
and hope ...glimmers.
Today I am on my knees...
"Give me the courage
to change the things I can
the serenity to accept the
things i cannot
and the wisdom
to know the difference"

I'll be your lean-to.

I'll be your lean-to.
I'll be your shelter your until the storms pass.
I'll be your sight when you've lost your vision.
I'll believe in you when you cease to believe in yourself.
Until you the taste of life wets your lips,
Until the growing inside you sprouts new buds
Until the strength comes back to stand tall on your own.
You can lean on me
I'll hold the space
I'll be your lean-to
