4/6/25 Let the Mystery be cc 7/2918

Let the 

Mystery be

Simple joys and homespun pleasures

Love and kindness are the measures

A brief visit to a tiny sphere

Some laughs some tears we disappear

What's going on

Who can till

Some say heaven

Others the hell

Whichever it is the best we can do

Is to be kind and loving until we're through

Let the 

Mystery be

Saver the 

Existing inconvenience

Conditions

The path to freedom is steep and rough

But that makes me resilient and tough

Hard becomes easy when I do it enough

Or

Wine and complain tell all of my trouble

Tell them how life is nothing that struggle

And how all my dreams burst like a bubble

Or

I'll study and practice create some great skill

Set my course so it's always up hill

Always remember I'm building my will

Saver the

Existing inconvenience

Conditions

3/22/25 Savor this Incomprehensible Mystery cc 12/31/18

Savor this

Incomprehensible
Mystery

Long ago I had big plans

Now all I do is sit on my hands

I studied and pondered for a whole lifespan

And now I still don't understand

How I got here or where I'm going

I'll peacefully except there's no way of knowing

Time passes things change

Sometimes it's quite strange

With gratitude & love I'll except what comes next

I'll keep my inbox empty and not get perplexed

Savor this

Incomprehensible

Mystery

3/16/25 Peaceful persistence Well overcome almost Any resistance10/7/18

Peaceful persistence

Well overcome almost

Any resistance

If for 20 years I studied an hour a day

Today I'd be an expert in meany a way

Save just 10% of all that you earn

And soon you'll have no financial concern

Exercise just a few hours a week

And you will keep your fitness at its peak

Good health is it outcome of many decisions

I'll learn to choose only healthy provisions

Same with staying cool, calm and collected

I'll practice daily until it's perfected

Peaceful persistence

Well overcome almost

Any resistance

3/11/25 Own the Morning rule The day cc 9/23/18

Own the

Morning rule

The day

My whole life through I can grow my being

Learning, discerning and adding real meaning

Study, exercise, meditate and write

As the years pass I may find some light

I'll write out today's plan

As clear I you can

Then number each one in order of importance

It's the best way to inshore real performance

Willpower is good for all kinds of stuff

But habits will make me resilient and tough

Own the

Morning rule

The day

3/5/25 Let the Mystery be cc9/1/18

Let the 

Mystery be

I can't know what I don't know

But I always act like I do

Daydreams and silly schemes

Are the soil in which I grew

I can stand way back

And consider the past

Wonder and ponder why

I ever started the task

Hope reigns eternal

Now I have a new plan 

I'll study and write poems

For as long as I can

Let the

Mystery be

2/27/25 Doom is Inevitable Gloom is Optional cc 10/11/18

Doom is

Inevitable

Gloom is

Optional

I used to think I had lots of time

To think up at least one great rhyme

It always seem so far away

Next year I'm 87 it could be any day

Plumbing, electric, indoor heat

TV, Internet. plenty to eat

I choose each instant how I react

Joy and gratitude are not abstract

They are creations of my discerning

I will spread goodwill and keep on learning

Doom is

Inevitable

Gloom is

Optional
