Brave to ask.

   Wise to listen.

      Inspired to act.

         Transformation.
I came across the concept of 'dormant questions' - at least I think that was the term used.  Questions someone may be aware of that they should ask, but they do not have the courage or the ability to articulate.
Questions that have the potential for life changing answers.  
They say admiting you have a problem is the first step.
Maybe admitting that you have a Question can work in the same way.
So take a moment. Is there a shelved question that has been gathering dust? See if you're ready to lift it down and dust it off.
I'll be doing the same.

Digging bills
Fractured assembly
Instructions of the welfare
Parachutes of penal codes
Never they a Forrest

Learnins a day news in a bed
Handles going for coffee
Walking towards the editin'
The times

Dear brown girl,
Without placing judgment, think about what your face looked like before you were born. Pay attention to what it tells you. You’re a warrior brown girl.
your inner emotional world shifting.
Everyone experiences their version of truth and you’re here to shift it.
Existence is an endless array of joy and pain
no need to agonise
Brown girl to be seen is not a penalty

Brown girl, hear these words and know they're true
You were born a warrior, with strength imbued
Your face before birth, held a wisdom untold
Listen to its message, let its power unfold

Your emotional world, is ever changing and vast
A reflection of the truth, that you hold steadfast
You're here to shift perceptions, to challenge what's known
To create a new reality, one that's truly your own

Life is full of joy and pain, a journey we all share
But there's no need to agonise, or feel like life's unfair
For you, brown girl, are a gift to this world
A shining light, waiting to be unfurled
A message to me by me for the people the resonate with me

Evening is on the take
The sun herself senses it
Her heat is slipping away
Eclipsed by cold, arctic tendrils
Rilling through the fragile geography
Earth is a strong fighter though
Able to restore itself in serene defiance
Light she brings to keep night in its place
Written for the challenge to write an acrostic poem to the word Ethereal, using the word serene somewhere in the poem by Mrs. Timetable.

Eternity
The fabric of reality twisted and torn
Healing and hurting woven in tight
Earth, beginning and end
Ruby gaze, caught in a trance
Everlasting Dream-state
All serene and lovely
Letting go and falling off
Challenge for World Poetry Day by Mrs. Timetable.

Challenge: acrostic for the word Ethereal with the word serene somewhere in it.

So much fun to do!
