Go to Work

Weeks into new year
new ideas
white chill swirling
white knuckles clinging to desire to change.

I want to do this
be that
inward self looking
inner focus on improving own vessel.

Efforts to clean inside
dark corners
lead to empty
frustrated dirt, swept back and forth.

Until eyes opening
we see
and share possessions
stepping over fear, out of focused flaws.

Loving like Him
Spirit led
service changes self
white knuckles warmed, stretching open to give.

"Forget yourself and go to work" ~Gorden B. Hinckley, advice from a father.
