Discovering Life Step by Step

Step by step
and moment by moment
we discover life
and bring forth reality.

Sometimes it’s best to forget
about beginnings and endings
and focus instead on
what each step and moment brings.

Allow yourself to
experience and explore your discoveries
without judgment
and behold the true beauty of life.

~Don Iannone

Book Testimonial: Cancer as Spiritual Teacher

“Your words touched my heart. Hopefully, they also touched my cancer. I am trusting they did. You’re right we will try anything, even poetry, when we have cancer. This made me smile. While I agree that the spiritual pilgrimage approach to cancer healing is best, it’s all out warfare when we are desperate to survive and grow stronger. Thank you for sharing your book and your cancer journey. You inspire me!” ~Melody, Birmingham, AL.

Forgetting myself

For just one moment,
I forgot myself–
Who I am,
Who I think I am, and
Who I think others think I am.

It was a relief–
To be free of myself, and
All the things associated
With who I think I am.

For one moment, I had the chance
To be something thoughts escape,
Something time doesn’t own,
Something with no need to die.

Note: Honoring the teachings of Jack Kornfield.

Latest Comment on Riding Wild Horses

I thought I’d share the latest comment on my newest book, Riding Wild Horses: “Originally I bought your book because I love horses, and my wife and I have supported the protection of the wild horses for years. When I started reading your book, I figured out that not only did you provide insights and advice about the wild horse situation, but you spoke to what wild horses symbolize to horse lovers and everyone else. Keep writing. Love your pithy poems. Sincerely, Len and Wendy” Riding Wild Horses is available on Amazon. com.
