Borrowing Breaths.
Borrowing Breaths
There is no use
borrowing breaths
from this life—
when would you ever return them?
Drop all of this non-sense
and take full advantage of your
God-given birthright to sing as loud
as the birds do.
What kind of plant
or tree questions or calculates
its growth and future?
Today is the only tomorrow that will ever happen for you.

A Great Fullness
Thank you is a practice
That needs to be practiced
For it to become well versed.
Its reward is the true feeling
Of gratefulness
That leaves in us
A Great Fullness.
Gratitude therefore,
is an over-flowing of our cup
and a realization that we have
been poured our weight in pure life.
Giving thanks is easy,
Try now and repeat allowed:
Thank you Breath for breathing me
Thank you Life for living me
Thank you Love for loving me.
Do this every moment you find forget-fullness
And allow yourself to remember the treasure
that is right under your nose:
A Great Fullness.
