choice

by Mary Frances Spencer

here and now
drink the full
cup

positive
intention to live
sip purpose
truth
beauty
compassion

hope
opens the heavy
and shines
a slow dawn

a potent brew
we all must
inhale

together

Very nice m'lady. I just see so many things need changing and so few pay any attention. So much puffing and blowing and nothing gets done.

choice indeed. and how strange that so many choose to drink from the other cup - the one filled with deception, ugliness and self-centeredness. I'll drink to your choice.

A great beginning that pulls me in. I like the simplicity and it is very positive. Thank you!
