84. May I Be Open
by Heather Pierson

May I be open to things as they are right now,
because this is how things are right now.

Remember the breath, remember the body,
​remember the goodness that you carry.

 

55. Everything Is Changing
by Kaitie Ty Warren

Everything is changing.
Life keeps rearranging; and
sometimes it feels awkward,
but we cannot go backward.
We cannot go backward.

 

34. Possibility
by Lisa Forkish

An end is not the end, it can be the beginning.

Like a river, I flow.

I am open to all the possibility.

 

148. Oh the Rain
by Patricia Norton

1. Oh the rain,
the rain it comes down,
and it carries a world
in its sound.
Oh the rain,
oh the rain,
it comes down.

2. Some
times I feel blue;
I’m
gonna take a breath or two
and soften,
let my heart
be tender.

3. Softly,
gently,
let it fall as it will.
Softly, gently
tender, tender.

 

139. Bend & Rebound
by Heidi Wilson

Bend and rebound, bend and rebound
​Gentle strength of the willow is found
