Redux
My lady, please don’t go.
I offer you protection and love,
being rooted in stability.
Let me envelop you in my wings
and ground you to me.
I can’t, Sir.
Another life demands my attention.
Being sheltered isn’t what I need
nor want.
Freedom beckons me, so I must go.

Inspired by What do you see #208
see that girl
she knows how to have fun
yes, the one with ice cream,
smiles, and watermelons
standing in front of a rainbow
follow that girl
she’ll take you to places
you won’t want to return from
be prepared for adventures
where your joy will grow
be that girl
and let your life take flight
Cognoscente
it all begins with curiosity
the acquisition of knowledge
spurring on an insatiable passion
the goal to be the connoisseur
of your ardent and fervent pursuit
as your greatness shines
your accomplishments
herald your arrival
at the door of success
Shine

Finding out who and where you were meant to be is the best gift you can give yourself.
Untitled Senryū by Suzette Benjamin
“If you want to know the truth of who you are, walk until not a person knows your name… A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet introspection.” ― Patrick Rothfuss
****
Senryū inspired by the above quote:
on a winding road
passing by a traveler
I find she was me
pulled by
dark memories
pushed by dreams, parts of me
ride ahead – I disentangle
myself
A Bit Odd
non-box-fitting
controversial societal sore thumbs
always feeling
the railing whispers
on the lips of the normies
for a supposed free society
the “i’m minding my own business” crowd is thin
almost non-existent
loudly proclaiming what’s alleged as right
wouldn’t it be wonderful
if this worldly space
desired to hold us all in love
Self-Actualization
Inspired by Reena’s Exploration Challenge #277 – Inspiring Quote
& Moonwashed Weekly Prompt #139 – Serene
“We all want to break our orbits, float like a satellite gone wild in space, run the risk of disintegration. We all want to take our lives in our own hands and hurl them out among the stars.”
― David Bottoms
at times serene
self-discovery can also be
an adventure
and one, mostly tumultuous
once the pieces have split apart
and been put back together
in necessary 0rder
life becomes more than survival
then
we are really alive
