Unexpected gifts
All the sweeter for surprise
Savour the moment

All as it should be
Each part in its proper place
Perfect alignment

Just like a puzzle
But the pieces keep changing
Do try to keep up

Deserving of love
Every single one of us
Without exception

Well equipped to cope
Resilient and resourceful
Work out the answer

Deadlines mounting up
Don’t crack under the pressure
Keep a steady head

Right out of nowhere
Unexpectedly offered
Gratefully received

A daunting challenge
Unprecedented in scale
Yet achievable

Nurturing friendships
Harsh experiences shared
Their impact lessened

Reduce the chaos
Bite your tongue and say nothing
Do not make things worse

The cosmic pillar
The centre of consciousness
Unmoving axis 

The quiet mind sits
Free from the past and future
Content in the now

In the life unlived
Trapped in fear of the future
Not fully present

Kick back and unwind
Time for a well-deserved break
You know you’ve earned it

Signs of change at last
Persistence starts to pay off
Progress is observed
