With laughter we run, hearts open wide,
Chasing the echoes of joy that abide.
Through fields of adventure, side by side,
In the thrill of the moment, there’s nowhere to hide.
Joy Chasing
Sorrow of my Heart
The sorrow of my heart
Because we have been apart
Has left me hollow inside
All I want to do is hide
To heal my broken heart.
Liquid Romance
There once was a rain that would dance,
In puddles it splashed with a chance.
It kissed all the ground,
In soft whirls it found,
Joy in the sky’s liquid romance.

The Soul’s Lantern
Sparkling in dark skies,
Guiding lost souls through the night,
Dreams ignite with light.
Burn, Baby, Burn
Burn, baby, burn
for all the wrongs you did,
Thinking I would never find out,
Shame on you,
your lies and tricks,
they cut so deep,
but I stand strong,
I’m taking back my peace.
The fire of truth,
it lights my way,
with every step,
I’ll find a new day.
No more shadows,
no more pain,
I’ll rise from the ashes,
like a bright flame.
So burn, baby, burn,
with the lessons learned,
I’ll carry on,
and my heart will return.
With hope in my soul,
and love all around,
I’ll build a new life,
on solid ground.

Whispers of the Night
In the quiet folds of night, a whisper calls,
Soft secrets carried on the breeze’s thrall,
It dances through the trees, a gentle sigh,
Inviting dreams to sway beneath the sky.
Frosty Beverage
Many small bubbles
Are in this refreshing drink
With sweet tanginess
With orange delightful taste
Don’t hesitate take a drink

Mindful Moment
Try journaling as a meditation. When you journal as a meditation practice, mindfulness and meditation, rather than the journal itself, become the goal.

Sky Blanket
Above us, the vast sky blankets the day,
Painted in colors that softly display.
Clouds drift like secrets, so airy and spry,
A canvas of wonder that’s never too gray.
Contentment
My life can’t be beat
I live in pineapple street
A pleasure to meet
The sun’s warmth on my head feels sweet,
Nature’s embrace is so complete
