Noise-cancellin'

phones and my scone -- drown plane conversation -- as i head to a third world destination -- to encounter real problems, -- and help solve 'em. -- Quietly, I'm quite focused to give back -- with supplies and care that they lack. -- Godspeed with God's plans -- of bad feet treated with blessed hands. -- Fulfilling purpose -- that makes it all worth it. -- Internally and eternally, -- I gotta smile. -- Hola Guatemala. -- I'm a man on a mission.     cK-3/8/18

No Antigua

snooze to roosters cocking off -- so I took a walk with my cough -- to breathe in tranquility on the streets -- as sun rises over the volcano peak -- and slowly it leaks -- a pink, perfect glow -- out out to the waking grid below -- blessed to come a-cross this view -- and this life perspective -- making the most out of our world with a human love, collective.     ck-3/9/18

The combination

of our team collaboration -- overcomes clubbed feet -- and for that cause, our hearts meet -- and our actions speak -- volumes, loud -- I can't express how proud. -- We may have language barriers -- but these kids are 'ers -- when we're under the Lake Atitlan stars. -- It's transforming to see -- them shed a disability -- for them, and for me. -- Now, they're empowered to live life -- better but still never like you are from a far -- A flash from the past keeps us so present. -- These are the best gifts; so precious. (deja vu but 1 year following her right clubfoot correction and me with better hair: 2017 and 2018) -   ck-3/10/18
