gentleness made audible

it is WE.

Good dialogue
radiates from

the ocean and the mountain-
the music of our
mental landscape

not a conclusion


Dialogue is a gift from God--
pass it forward


Dialogue with the Divine
is the fruit of silence

for sick hearts


Dialogue is not black and white
red or grey;
It is the sun rising on a new day

the more the better

"when I was young" stories
and grandchildren turning off TV
to listen


Dialogue is the search that
transcends self
the hope that heals divisiveness


Prayerful dialogue
is the still small voice (Elijah)
that whispers "peace"
in the midst of conflict
