Feb 12, 2010 – Hosting and Harvesting Alberta’s Ingenuity
Discovering understanding
I spotted it from afar
but I didn’t know what was around the bend.
I like balance
in a bigger world
harvesting value
I’m solid
but the balance could crash
as I spin
seeking everything around
in wonder of children
to a new expansive, steady
home
Over the edge of the cliff
I see a wondrous valley
depending on how I look
at Jesus in the cheese shop
where the provolone, the camembert
is not strong or stinky
Conversation basics
are closest to me
learning with people
speak and ask
energetic meshes for life
self organizing
The masks are off in a pile at the door
my feet are on the ground
I pick what works
to balance
with strength and support
with others
with humility
in the eye of the storm
prepared together
moving forward
deeply, then deeper
Empowerment
I finally get the future
sustainability
trading and gathering tomatoes, potatoes and onions
in wonder of what’s
still
standing
seeking synchronicity
but it’s foggy
and I keep walking
with support in the background
in a hectic world
where time is friend or foe
reflecting on celebration
there’s a day ahead.
