Heavenly Cow

Oh, heavenly cow 

Where have you been all my life 

With glorious milk.

With each mouthwatering drink

 A lost memory appears

Random Thoughts 12/13/25

Well today I had to work. The part that sucks is that it is only for a couple of hours which drives me mad when I have to work on a Saturday and I have to do that two times a month.

Besides that, I had a pretty good day. I used a different theme for my blog and changed it, and I have to say I am digging it right now. I will have to see how long before I get the itch to change it again.

Poetry

Is it Me?

Is it me,
Was it something I did?
Do I need to change?
I will gladly do that to have someone who cares.

I search for the light,
In shadows of doubt,
Wondering if love,
Is still worth the route.

If I bend and I break,
Will the pieces align?
Will you see the real me,
Or leave me behind?

With open hands,
I offer my heart,
In hopes that the journey,
Is just the right start.

So tell me your thoughts,
Let’s clear the air,
For love is a treasure,
When two souls truly share.

Poetry

Lost or Misplaced

Sally was saddened, lost and forlorn,
Fearing her treasure was forever gone.
As tears threatened to fall, her heart in despair,
She searched high and low, her anguish to bear.

Placing her hands on the bed, a glimmer of hope,
To her surprise, her treasure was within scope.
Not lost, but misplaced, a joyous revelation,
Tears of happiness rolled, an end to her frustration.

I’ve decided that tomorrow I’ll redesign my blog. If it doesn’t turn out the way I want, I can always revert it back to the previous version. If I don’t make this change, it’ll just linger in my mind and drive me crazy! 😂

Today was a pretty laid-back day, which was nice after such a hectic week—or really, a hectic month. I took some time to relax, something I haven’t done in a while.

Daily Prompts

Performances

Daily writing prompt
Have you ever performed on stage or given a speech?

Yes, I have had the opportunity to perform many times throughout my life. In elementary school, and continued through high school, where I became actively involved in both concert band and marching band.

Daily Prompts

Physical Activities

Daily writing prompt
What are your favorite physical activities or exercises?

Physical activities and exercise aren’t usually my forte, and I recognize that I should incorporate more of it into my routine. However, if I had to choose an exercise, swimming is definitely my favorite. When I’m in the water, it hardly feels like a workout at all.

In the past, I also enjoyed step aerobics; I took a class back in college and found it to be quite fun. Lately, I’ve developed a bit of interest in boxing, especially after witnessing a demonstration at a work event. It sparked my curiosity!

Random Thoughts 12/11/25

As I sit here, I find myself contemplating yet another redesign of my blog. None of the layouts I’ve tried so far truly speak to me. There’s another one I’ve been eyeing, and maybe I’ll give it a shot. Who knows—perhaps it’s the artist in me that resists settling, or maybe I’m just a little indecisive.

On a brighter note, I had the chance to watch my niece’s school dance performance today, and it was wonderful. I really enjoyed seeing her on stage with her classmates, and it felt special to leave work early just to be there.

Poetry

The Rhyme of the Unhinged

I couldn’t think of a rhyme for “singe,”
My thoughts are scattered, feeling quite unhinged.
I aimed to be clever, to craft something slick,
But my poetic skills feel burnt, thick, and quick.

In my mind I searched, through shadows and light,
Hoping to find a word that felt right.
Yet all that I found were echoes of lack,
No dashin’ good phrases, just a dim track.

So, I’ll wrap up my poem with a humorous quip,
Hoping you liked it, despite any blip.
For poetry’s journey is often a race,
And sometimes we stumble but still find our place.

Words We Need

When words don’t come out 

Never try and force them all

Or you’ll lose your mind

Silence can sometimes bring peace

To bring back the words that we need…
