It's scary some times, anxieties plenty yet still
Of which we do what we must
A job? Nay, vocation
A calling
The betterment of men
We are meant more than this
The insistence of consistence
The soul is screaming
Don't forget your true calling
To be aware of the difference from I
Their childlike wonder, empathy, healer, believer, the love of God and fellow men, you care you care you care you care
you care you care
you care
You Care.
And aware,
Harmony and beauty you bring, a flame to light the way with your presence,
share your spark and the warmth.
Empathy.
"How about we try some needs gap analysis?
Let's try to envisaging where we will be 5 years from now..."
Shut up and go back to the work, dummy
Done with the tragic roleplay?

Don't tell me that's it,
That vague speck over yonder
A classic rabbit food metaphor,
Dangling in my line of sight forever
A couple clicks past my ability to care
And six feet beneath every single nightmare
I sense it senses I'm past the point of repair
And headed nowhere
It mocks my thousand-yard stare
The hidden damage from trying to fight fair
Habitually a day late and a dollar short of the right fare
But you know what they say about fair

Loved and lost
Much
But never lost his touch.
Go HARD or go HOME,
Your STRENGTH and AGILITY
Is CERTAINLY SHOWN.

There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
stopping your FLOW,
So, get on YOUR MARK, GET SET and GO

Take off like a ROCKET 🚀
so high up in the SKY
Just Take on that CHALLENGE,
DON'T LET IT PASS YOU BY.

YOU GOT THIS, LETS GO,
COME ON,
NOW, LET'S DO IT!!!
Give it ALL that YOU GOT,
DON'T GIVE up or QUIT.

You have someone ROOTING and
is on YOUR SIDE,
Keep STRIVING for ACHIEVEMENTS and
LET GOD BE YOUR GUIDE.

KEEP ON GOING, KEEP PUSHING and
RISE TO THE TOP
YOU'RE UNSTOPPABLE NOW,
CAN'T STOP and WON'T STOP!!!!

Through BLOOD, SWEAT and TEARS,
Work your FINGERS TO THE BONE,
Your PERSEVERANCE STANDS OUT,
GO HARD or GO HOME!!!!!

The Waves Await
So travel your Sea
Captain your Ship
You have Ability
To Navigate Safely
Your spiritual Waters
Anchor your Heart
Upon your own Orders
As you reach new Shore
It is time to Explore
The treasure to be Found
On your Sacred Ground!

I love analogy and metaphor related to the Sea.  Maybe it is that Celtic connection being a Ryan/Beckett  etc.

If one person can do it then someone else will be able to as well
such is the range and scope of human ability we can surely tell.

one day
your warmth will find you
to let you see
your sun had the ability to shine

it was not a failure
it was waiting for the right time
to shine for itself
instead of others
David Hilburn Mar 2023
With work
The times are ours to live
And make the day come for more
With a hand full of sunshine to give

But the night, so somber
Showing its just and must
Has the sense of another wonder
A longing look at privilege, just because

Liberty in a worthier art?
So fulfilled with a memory for you
The sharing how, to know for a word between the smart
And the wishes of life, to complete the irony due

Somewhere the call of unison
Made in redoubt for a saner heed
Than the count of a days worth, a comparison
With only a chance meeting of minds to guide us, are we need?

Is it true?

That my words are now spilt- broth pushed against the brim,
Liquid to big for its container-gracelessly,
it mimics the wild
of unbound tides.
Wherein a fleeting salvation; is oh so frantically exempt-
Its within my linguistic inability
lies my failure's false contempt.

The mundane English word was once my spell to cast
An arsenal of adjectives & repertoire of verbs.
Yet in English its still heard,
communication's magic,
Wielding the awe of expression-  Cured-
I try to print back into begin

again.
