Pink Tree Serenity

Beneath the pink tree, I feel calm and free,


Its pretty flowers make me smile, you see.


They dance in the wind, so light and bright,


Under the tree, everything feels just right.

Screws Loose

The shrew has some screws loose.

They need to be tighten

but how can it be done.

I dont know what to do

Do I chance it and do it myself?

Or, do I leave it alone

and deal with her wrath?

Spirituality

How important is spirituality in your life?

I can’t believe I forgot to answer this yesterday, so here we go. I believe spirituality is being concerned with human spirits or souls. In that case, spirituality plays a big role in my life. I am always concerned about other people to the point that I might not take care of myself, but I have been improving on making sure I take care of myself as well.

Thanks for reading!

Vanilla, Chocolate, Red Velvet, and many more.

Oh! which one to choose,

Too many choices

I can’t decide

Whatever will I do?

Nothing can go wrong with that,

Right?

Anthony’s Poem: Connie the Crossed-Eyed Crocodile with artwork


Poem by Anthony

Connie the Crossed-Eyed Crocodile – Anthony’s Crazy Love and Life Lessons in Empathy (wordpress.com)

Connie was a cross-eyed crocodile

Exploring a book took her quite a while.

She’d start left and then right

And be reading all night.

Aesop’s Fables are her style…

My Self Care

How do you practice self-care?

I try to prioritize self-care by making time for activities that bring me joy, such as drawing, recently writing, and sharing my thoughts on this blog. Recognizing the importance of self-care, I am trying to practice it whenever I feel overwhelmed or stressed. It’s crucial for me to prioritize this because it helps me maintain balance and well-being in my life.

Alone

No one to hold me, no one to chase

The days stretch on endlessly, a never-ending night
No one to share my thoughts, no one to hold tight
I long for connection, for someone to see
The loneliness inside me, the ache to be free

I reach out in the darkness, but no one is there
I cry out for comfort, but no one will care
I am lost in this void, this vast empty space
Alone in my loneliness, with tears on my face

But I know deep inside, that this too shall pass
That the sun will shine again, that this pain will not last
I hold onto hope, that one day I’ll find
A kindred spirit, a love that is kind

So I’ll weather this storm, this lonely night
And trust in the promise, that everything will be right
For even in my solitude, I am not truly alone
For love will find me, and make this heart its home.

Anthony’s Poem: Zach, the Forgetful Elephant and Artwork

Poem by Anthony

Zach, the Forgetful Elephant – Anthony’s Crazy Love and Life Lessons in Empathy (wordpress.com)

Zach, a young elephant was upset

Since unlike his contemporaries, he’d always forget.

Homework, notes, the ladder for his bunk

If it wasn’t attached he’d misplace his trunk.

Consuming more ginseng would be a sure bet…

Heinrich was a hippo Henry for short

Not the typical hippo of sorts.

His double-sized chin

Always carries a grin.

In laughter, often snort…

Childhood Meal

Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood?

The meal that always brings me back to my childhood whenever I eat it is carne asada, Mexican rice, and beans. I remember the family get-togethers in my grandparent’s backyard, the savory aroma of the carne asada sizzling on the grill, and the laughter of my cousins echoing through the air. The vibrant colors of the Mexican rice and the heartiness of the beans always made the meal feel like a fiesta. Those were the times when we would sit around the table, sharing stories and creating cherished memories.
