Spirits lift us up
Or they will tear us all down
Be ever cautious
You might end up facedown,
Choose wisely, my friend, choose well…

Heart ❤️
Now, let me
in your
heart
We are destined
to be
together
Hold
my trembling
hope
Trust and Honesty
——————————
Trust, never taken
Instead, it’s given freely
Shared among us all
Be cautious; don’t do something
That will make them not trust you…

Youth of a nation

Dreams of the future
Dreams do come true

Gumball Machine
Oh, gumball machine,
Colors bright, pure delight.
Twist, clink, candy land,
Children’s smiles at your command.
Dancing Sprites
Dancing sprites abound
All basking in blinding light
Making day of night
Show the way for those in need
Let them guide you to greatness…

Love Will Always Win
Hate will never win
As love undoes all its sins
Knowing that, we grin
Together we will begin
In our hearts, love grows within…

Caution
I have been told that I have a lot of patience
But even if I do, there is only so much I can take
So, take caution with your words and actions
For even the patient have their limits, make no mistake
Rely On You
Your final three words this week are:
RELY
REBEL
RESENT
I used to rely on you,
Maybe that is what made you resent me,
And caused you to rebel—
But I’m still standing in the quiet aftermath,
Sorting through the echoes of what we were,
Learning how to breathe without your shadow,
And teaching my heart not to flinch
At the memory of your leaving.
In A Garden
In a garden so green and so calm,
Where the flowers released their sweet balm,
The bees buzzed a tune,
‘Neath the light of the moon,
And the night’s gentle breeze brought a charm.
Hot to Cold
Hot
Sweltering, Fiery
Sizzling, Scorching, Boiling
Blaze, Flame, Frost, Chill
Freezing, Shivering, Chilling
Frigid, Icy
Cold
The Shape of Togetherness
Coming together in harmony
Is truly what we need to prosper.
Collaborating to achieve
the greatest goals for us.
Together we rise,
stronger each day,
hand in hand,
moving
forward.
Compromise
We need to compromise for a change to happen—
not someday, not later,
but now,
before stubbornness cements the ground
we’re trying to grow from,
before silence becomes the only thing
we have left to share.
Overachievers
Overachievers
Deal with great pressures on them
To always be great
Overcoming obstacles
Striving for excellence now

Bamm-Bamm: Artwork & Poem
Bamm Bamm with his strength untold,
From the Flintstones, a heart of gold.
With a club in hand, and a joyful shout,
He’s always ready to help out.
A child of stone, so mighty and tough,
But deep down inside, he’s gentle enough.
With Pebbles, his love is clear to see,
A friendship that’s as strong as can be.
