Such propaganda,
Weapons of mass distraction,
Truth hidden from all.
Whispers in the shadows grow,
Eyes seek light through the darkness.

Chasing Dreams: An Ode to Resilience
Always wondered if this would be the time
Beware of what might be coming for you
Caution, your heart, for you never know
Danger is all around
Evade at all cost
Fight with everything that you have
Going for the win
Hurry, you can’t be late
Insist your every wish
Just go for it
Kindness is the key
Live for the moment
Move with determination
Now or forever be lost
Open the mind to all ideas
Precious moments are being missed
Quit doubts
Realize your potential
Seize the moment
The time is now
Unity is the name of the game
Victory awaits those who strive
With every effort, dreams come alive
Xenial gestures create bonds so tight
Yield not to fear, embrace the light
Zealously chase the dreams in your sight.

Nature’s Bounty
Prickly pears do stick,
Natal plums are quite bitter,
Breadfruit is unique.
Under the sun they grow bright,
Nature’s gifts in warm daylight.

The Adventures of Carol the Curious Cat
Carol was a curious cat
Who was looking for an adventure
Through the backyard will be an adventure
Carol was a curious cat
–
Who was looking for an adventure
First, through the sliding glass door
Even though this part is a bore
Who was looking for an adventure
–
First, through the sliding glass door
Then up the tall oak tree
Where she dreamed to be free
First, through the sliding glass door
–
Then up the tall oak tree
With a view of the world so wide
Where she felt her joy and pride
Then up the tall oak tree
–
Where she dreamed to be free
Chasing shadows in the sun
Where every moment was pure fun
Where she dreamed to be free
–
With a view of the world so wide
She spotted a butterfly dance
Inviting her to take a chance
With a view of the world so wide
–
Chasing shadows in the sun
Carol leaped with playful grace
Each leap an adventure to embrace
Chasing shadows in the sun
–
Where every moment was pure fun
She pranced and twirled with glee
In her backyard kingdom, so carefree
Where every moment was pure fun
–
Carol was a curious cat
Who was looking for an adventure
Through the backyard will be an adventure
Carol was a curious cat
Shadows of Fear
Fear of judgment lingers,
Tightly grasping what we know.
Letting go is hard,
Leaves no space for us to grow,
In shadows, dreams remain low.
Echoes of Longing
Absence makes hearts long,
Time apart can teach us well,
Memories like threads,
Woven through the silent nights,
Love’s echo grows stronger still.
Winter’s Embrace
In winter’s hush, the world is draped in white,
As whispers of the frost dance in the night.
–
The trees stand tall, their limbs like lace,
While moonlight glows, casting a serene embrace.
–
The stars above twinkle in the cold,
A blanket of diamonds, their stories untold.
–
Footprints crunch softly on the glistening ground,
In this quiet wonder, peace can be found.
–
In this tranquil moment, time ceases to flow,
As winter’s magic lingers, in its gentle glow.

A Canvas in the Sky
In the sky where the bright sun does gleam,
Clouds drift by like a soft, gentle dream.
With birds soaring high,
And the stars in the sky,
It’s a canvas that dances, it seems.
A Sweet Delight
Chewy
Scrumptious candy
Dancing on my sweet tongue
Joyful tastes wrapped in colors.
Delight
Temperature Rhymes
Hot
Scorch, Swelter
Sizzling, burning, radiating
Fire, Sun, Ice, Snow
freezing, shivering, numbing
Chilly, frigid
Cold
Evolution of Television
Watching the TV
Is very different today
Than its inception.
Colors bright, stories unfold,
Bringing us all close together.

Whispers of Serenity
Contemplate quiet
Think hard as silence surrounds
Peaceful place, indeed.
Gentle breeze whispers my thoughts,
Nature’s calm wraps me in light.
