- “I didn’t mean to keep the secret, but once I had it, it wouldn’t let me go.”
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

The Jolly Elves of the North- A Collaboration
There once were some elves up north,
Who worked for old Santa of course.
They stitched toys all day,
In a jolly green way,
Then laughed as they sped down the North
They bustled and buzzed through the snow,
With buttons and ribbons in tow.
From morning till night,
They worked with delight,
As whistles and hammers did go.
