Dear People-Pleasers:
Got a minute?
Suspend yourself from Time.
Place your Life on Mute
Stay- you don’t have to Scoot
Enjoy this flavor of Fruit
Forget about the Loot
Remember?
Do you remember what it feels like …to Feel?
You don’t have time for that- right?
If there were more hours in the day, you might?
Sit with those feelings, you fight?
I know…
it’s easier to stay in the dark - not Light
The Light feels a little too Bright
Stay in their shadow, you Might
Keep running away- take Flight
Origami, you fold to a Kite
filled up that schedule- real Tight
Stop.
Feel yourself turn towards the Sun
For a second, stay here and don’t Run
At first it feels hard, but then Fun
This is EQ.
Your soul inviting to Play
Life starting to feel like Clay
You’ve done found yourself- I Pray
No longer living for them- that way
Time can be a true friend
A gift to cherish
to be here now
to stop and to feel
because you know how
Emotions are love-letters
P.O. Box: Your Heart
By reading those things
Life meant for you, will Start.
Dive inward;
Swim back upstream you Go
No maps needed- you already Know
Alignment is calling;
Find that Flow.
It’s time to finally embrace your Glow.
Compare No More.
Grateful, you’ll be-
when you let feelings tell you
what they need you to See.
Use the data!
Crack the code!
Living this way frees you
from people-pleaser-mode.

So beautiful and inspiring! Thank you dear Kay!
Fun and resonant practices in verse! Wonderful, K. Love the imagery of the Origami kite. There’s a kind of tension throughout of liberation and being tethered. Let’s keep going!
