A New
Prescription For Living
~ Dubiously Dos
I need a new pair
of glasses.
The ones I have been
wearing
have warped my perspective.
Everything I "know"
is biased...
jaded...
torn and faded.
"I" needs to be sent
on sabbatical...
Given an honorable
discharge
and asked to step
down...
Put in a crate and
shipped to the
black hole...
Not at this Address
- Return to Sender.
Recoiling at the sense
of urgency
everything seems
to have lately -
Examining pettiness
of resentments
as they roll by in
the desert of my
consciousness - I
am ashamed and
confounded.
Salvation in stillness.
Questing for serenity
and grace.
Sharing a taste of
gratitude with a
dash of humility
for good measure.
Be it ever so humble....
There's no place
like home.
In
His Hands
~~Dubiously Dos
It is a beautiful
day.
Sitting in His palm,
I am serene and at
peace
As I watch my world
spin away.
It is a learning day.
Perching precariously
on His fingertip,
As I practice loosening
my grasp,
Testing trust and
glimpsing faith.
It is a healing day.
Touching His hand,
I am new,
My spirit, mind and
body strengthened.
It is a loving day.
Feeling the gentleness
with which I am held,
He demonstrates His
message
And urges me to service.
It is a peaceful day.
Surrounded by His
hand
I am shielded from
tribulation -
Discontentments are
soothed.
It is a joyous day.
Warmed by His warmth
I am grateful.
I can appreciate
the beauty
Of life's broader
strokes
Rather than crease
my brow
And puzzle the intricacies
of my path.
Fellowship
~Dubiously Dos
Send me sunshine
wrapped in friendship.
A smile makes a pretty
bow.
Your warm greeting
-
the accompanying
card.
Let's laugh together
as we share the secret...
wink and compare
Mona Lisa smiles
as we give it to
a stranger.
