A place to show my work
Tiny worlds in hand,
Fastening fabric and dreams,
Securing life’s course.
Glimmers of hope rise,
Within each woven thread,
Stories waiting to soar.
In shadows, light dances,
Whispers of joy intertwine,
Crafted tales take form.
With every gentle stitch,
A universe unfolds,
Boundless, yet so small.
Held close to the heart,
These dreams breathe and thrive,
In our palms, they entwine.
“It’s fine to celebrate success, but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.” —Bill Gates
Feeling lonely, needing cuddles tight,
Longing for warmth on this cold, dark night.
Arms empty, with no one to hold near,
Wishing for someone to chase off this fear.
–
Yearning for comfort, a soothing embrace,
But finding solitude in this desolate place.
The need for connection, a longing so deep,
Yearning for love, in my heart it will keep.
–
Aching for closeness, a touch so tender,
Hoping for warmth, a love that won’t surrender.
Yet in this moment, I’m all on my own,
Seeking a bond that’s still yet unknown.
–
So I’ll wait for the day when someone will care,
To share in my need for cuddles to share.
Until then, I’ll hold onto this hope so tight,
That one day, I’ll find my cuddle delight
The moon glows softly in the velvet night,
Dreams whisper softly, take flight.
Stars dance above, shining bright.
“I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to dance better than myself.” —Arianna Huffington

Keeper of our world.
Your final three words for this week are:
STUCK
CLUCK
CHUCK
There once was a cow named Chuck
Who seems to be stuck, oh what luck!
In the mud he did tread,
With a loud moo he said,
“I’d rather be clucking like a duck!”
Fighting for equality
Empowering voices
Making strides for justice
Inspiring change
Nurturing hope
Illuminating paths where fairness unwinds.
Strength in unity
Towards a future where all are unbanned.

Here’s an outtake from a challenge I was planning to do. There’s an error in this one, but I love how it turned out, so here you go!
Roger the Roster and Eddie the Eagle spent their days on the balcony, indulging in marshmallows and sipping wine. A violin’s soothing melody floated through the air, enhancing their wishy-washy atmosphere. Despite the music’s charm, their lives felt stagnant, with financial troubles looming. The stark reality was that their car was about to be impounded, a constant reminder of their struggles. Yet, they chose to focus on trivial pleasures, seemingly unfazed by the precariousness of their situation.
Tears fall like raindrops,
Heavy hearts wear shadows’ veils,
Time heals, yet leaves marks.
Preparation is what’s needed
To accomplish what you hope,
With each small step and steady aim,
You’ll find your way, you’ll learn to cope.
Each moment spent in focus clear
Builds the path that leads you on;
With courage in your heart, my dear,
Your dreams will wake with each new dawn
The only podcast I listen to is “On That Note,” hosted by Shawn Stockman from Boyz II Men. Here’s a clip from one of the latest moments where he was interviewing his bandmates.
