March Madness. Day 5. Haiku challenge. Humble nod to my friend Amy Ferris for inspiring me & this by going all retrograde right back on Mercury every damn time. #WCW
What Mercury Doesn’t Know
Mercury may be
In retrograde but me too
Bringing #goodjoujou.

#GoodJouJou
(Ode to 2017)
A haiku. A word.
My #mantra. Lit a candle
Made a wish. Didn’t
Blow out the candle-
Watched it burn bright in the night-
The flickering flame
Of the night, a year.
Final bow. A prayer; blew
A kiss. One. God be
With us. Another
Kiss. Hello new year new day-
Jesus take the wheel.
Help us do justly
And love mercy (which triumphs)
And to walk humbly
With God and us all-
ALL God’s children. All of them
Precious in God’s sight.
Where does peace on earth
And goodwill to all begin?
Once upon a time…
A Refugee. Now
me: rebel with ancient hope-
This force is with me.
It moves me. Whispers
Beloved. Go…do likewise.
Be love. Be a light.
Light the night, the world,
Another’s candle. Like good
Energy. Bring it.
