​Tea for the soul
a soothing balm
when we blend such abundance
 and pour forth our Selves,
our dreams,
our imaginings
And blessed sharing we revel
in delighted dance
that we had such capacities
Just when we thought ourselves
overwhelmed
full-up
too much
We have found in the steeping,
mixing,
blending
alchemizing
of our ideas and desires and needs and wants
this glorious dance between our inner world
and outer world
the way of making tea
for the soul
a tonic for the heart and mind and body

​Smooth flow
loosen the grip on past
present
and future
Releasing ruminating hang-ups
It is not to serve Justice
that we accuse, regret, deny, give-in, label, agree or disagree, compromise or compartmentalize
It is not in the service of Justice that we fight, advocate, or forgive
Serving Justice is to hold center
hold the calm stillness of inner truth
and self-trust
Hold ourselves in the Present Moment
with integrity
And know that Divine Law
for which we have no understanding outside of that center
will move accordingly
always and with the only aid
of our releasing
past and future
for the sake of holding Now
empowered
