On the mend

On the mend,
So many of us,
From one thing or another,
Said or unsaid,
Still recovering…
Adjusting,
Rebuilding,
Focusing on what is essential,
at this very time,
To strengthen ourselves,
To balance ourselves,
To reeducate ourselves,
Enough to keep moving,
Meanwhile the world around us buzzing
For our attention as well.
On the mend
Each of us all are,
From something,
That we experienced or made impact on us,
That we engaged in,
May we take the time needed
To recover means to unload the weight,
It carries on us,
To assess, and try to bring about
Some kind of livable harmony.
That is the moment by moment,
Task and trial at hand.
May we take gentle or fierce, strides,
Honoring ourselves and knowing
That things will most definitely pop up,
To challenge you, to test how forward your motion is,
To wake you up, show you where your focus is or isn’t,
To shake, rattle and roll you,
To work on yourself, your beliefs, your past actions,
Choices and behavior..
Reflect, reframe, find some resolution that may
Not be perfect, but will work at this time to
Clear the hurdle, but also will empower YOU so,
You can redirect.
May you find your speed,
May you find some relief to keep you healing,
And growing, and may your mend be whole.
