A place to show my work
Your three words today are:
NIGHTINGALE
NORMAL
NEWS
A nightingale sings softly in the trees,
Turning normal moments into gentle melodies.
Its song drifts farther than the morning news,
A reminder that quiet beauty is ours to choose.
Your three words today are:
MASH
MAST
MARSH
A tall mast stood beside the marsh,
Where winter winds blew cold and harsh.
They stepped into the sodden bog
And churned the frozen earth to mash.

Your challenge for this week
Your three words today are:
LOAM
LOATHE
LIST
In the quiet cradle of loam,
Seeds whisper of futures they’ve yet to enlist.
I loathe how time forgets their stories—
how roots grow long, yet names slip from the list.
Still, the earth remembers everything,
holding every rise and ruin close—
a keeper of what we cherish,
and what we choose to let go.
A windstorm of emotions rushes through me,
each one twisting into the next before I can name it.
I can’t tell where one feeling begins
or when another finally lets go—
only that they collide inside me,
leaving me standing in the quiet after the storm.

Your challenge for this week
The quiet woods at dusk begin to beckon,
a whisper soft enough to make me reckon
with all the paths I never dared to take,
the dreams I shelved, the chances I let break—
yet still the fading light says, come, and I awaken.

Your challenge for this week
There once was a cow who lived in a barn,
who was always warned of the fox on the farm;
but she’d wander at night,
’til she got quite a fright—
now she stays where it’s safe from all harm.
A shadow falls across the room,
As twilight fades to gray,
A quiet touch of midnight blues
That steals the light away.
But music drifts upon the breeze,
A soft and healing sound,
And in the rhythm of the blues,
A deeper peace is found.
The moon lets down a silver beam
To dance upon the quiet stream,
Turning the dark and restless night
Into a world of soft delight.

Your challenge for this week
Openly sharing what rolls through the mind,
Persistent in views that are sharply defined.
Insisting on paths that they believe to be right,
Never back down from a spirited fight.
Indifferent to critics who try to oppose,
Onward they push where their certainty goes.
Not easily swayed by the crowd or the trend,
Always prepared to defend their own stance.
Talking with passion, conviction, and pride,
Eager to speak what is brewing inside,
Decided and firm, they won’t step aside.
