He sleeps the daylight into sand

Task pile high, the hours have flown –

No wonder he sits alone.

Challenge, Poetry

Urge to Grow

I feel the quiet urge to grow,
to breathe, to soften, to let things flow.
A tiny pull, a steady nudge—
a whisper saying live, don’t judge.

Your challenge for this week

  • A character follows a trail of notes left by someone who knows them better than they know themselves.
Challenge, Poetry

In the Corner of My Mind


In the corner of my mind,
a quiet room waits for me.
Some days it’s filled with sunlight,
other days, a trembling sea.

Memories stack like folded letters,
some gentle, some unkind.
Yet still, a softer voice keeps rising
from the deeper part inside.

It reminds me I am learning,
that healing takes its time,
and even shadows lose their power
when I choose to let them unwind.

So I sit with what is heavy,
and I honor what I find.
Because every step toward knowing myself
begins in the corner of my mind.

Challenge, Poetry, Word of the Day

Distant Feelings

There are days the world feels distant,
like you’re walking underwater.
Thoughts echo in strange directions,
and everything takes effort.

But even then, your health holds on
in the smallest acts of staying.
You’re still here, still trying,
and that is its own kind of grace.

Challenge, Poetry, Word of the Day

Gear it Up

It is time to gear up for action
Not sitting back and doing nothing
Make your dreams a reality, my friend
Experience life to the fullest
for you will never know when it will be your last
So, step boldly into the path ahead,
Trust the fire that lives within you,
And let today be the start of everything.
