Facilitating Change
Smooth Transitions
Feeling a bit on the outs
like, headlights, in the eyes of a fawn
It takes one hand to count
all the things that I can count on
I've compiled a list
anthologizing a plan
To sort out what it is
why I am - how I am
I need to establish my patterns
redirect the mis-cues
Thoughts and actions, discerned
proceeding with follow-through.
Becoming my solace
not the source of my guilt
Nobody is flawless
Clean up the milk that's been spilt
Begin to work through the issues
interrupting my smooth
Being selective on how I choose
what will be my next move
Cards on the table
my eye on the prize
Knowing I am more than able
to be what "smoothness" implies

Great work! Keep up the great work!"
Ah, this was so powerful! I loved it!
Fabulous poem :) Just remember not to be too hard on yourself. Smoothness is relative. I'm sure you are killin' it!
Kelli, you are so much better than smooth. You are strong & unflappable, weathering the roughest of storms & making it look easy, all while still being there for those who need you.
A great way to describe how one can see oneself.
Your smooth is strong. You've got this.
great smooth entry
You can do anything! 🥰
