Not restricted to poems alone, my After series will also occasionally delve into other sources. This poem was inspired by Just One Thing, a newsletter by Rick Hanson.
after Rick Hanson, PhD
the cup I drink from this morning washes up on the shore
the eye that receives a sunrise this morning washes up on the shore
the smile of a friend that lands in my heart this morning washes up on the shore
I step onto the shore
leave the unmet
for now
Tender Rebellion 
I love the vivid opening lines of this piece! ❤
