CORNY! CORNY! CORNY!

As one insight ignites the next
It’s come clear that over most of my life
I’ve given most everyone the benefit of the doubt
In recent years it’s also come clear as to
Whom had not offered that same depth of
Generosity of spirit to me
And guess what came clear after that?
When considering the small circle of extended fam and
Friends who’d felt need to dump darkly focused
Judgments upon my head, I was surprised to
See a certain someone holding hands much too
Often with that narrow minded group?  Namely—Me!
Thank goodness for EMDR therapy, which, having opened
My eyes to blind spots that kept me in Denialand
Over long, expanded my narrow point of view to
Grasp hold of opportunities to Alamand left, change
Partners and Dosey Doe away from that narrow minded circle in
Favor of dancing with folks who know the value of
 Loving each other, vulnerabilities and all—unconditionally!
As to enjoying the person I’m choosing to spend
One-on-one time with more than anyone else while awaiting
Test results, well, that person is me—because
I’ve worked to make certain not to subconsciously harbor
Negatively focused attitudes that would heighten my sense of
Frustration—Frustration about what, you ask?
About whatever keeps my mind busy—for instance
I’ll not chastise myself about the fact that everything
Stored inside my walk in closet as well as in that junk drawer has
Clearly gotten way out of hand, so rather than
Attacking that clutter with a vengeance, I’ve been laughing at
Myself for having become the pack rat that Will declares me
To be, and now that my closet and that junk drawer are
Reorganized—I’ll redirect my focus toward enjoying
The weekend ahead—David is flying in for
Father’s Day, and whenever he’s in town
Ravi pretty much lives at Gramma’s house, and somehow
The more my spirit feels reason to laugh, the less
My headache pounds against my frontal lobe like a Tom Tom on
The warpath intent upon scalping my peace of mind ...
Lucky me to ‘feel myself’ surrounded by loved ones enjoying
Good times, directly ahead, thus naturally buoying
My emotional balance, which might otherwise take
A sudden downward dive during worrisome times  ...
In short, imagine me anticipating a good time that’s
Bound to turn reality’s tom tom into a delectable bon bon that’s
Easily swallowed at least for the next few days—
Corny!  Corny!  Corny!

My daily horoscope:
You have stories to tell
Information to impart and
Ways to make people laugh
Still, you hold back

Gotta love it when
The Universal Spirit
Channels where you’re at—right?
Hmmm—perhaps tomorrow’s
Horoscope will channel MRI results

Gotta run—
Doorbell just announced
Steven’s arrival to watch basketball with Will
While Ravi directs her number one sidekick to
Do whatever number one sidekicks do best—
Role play whatever part that the best bud of
An imaginative four year old charmer
Suggests is mine—generally
Ravi is Simba and I’m Uncle Scar—Roooar!
Or I’m the villain to whatever princess is in need
Of escaping from captivity
The only thing that never changes is
The fact that Ravi plays the super star!
LOL!
