A place to show my work
Your three words today are:
SHARP
CUT
PRICK
The sharp pain of the words you said
Cuts through me like a knife.
The pain comes rushing in,
Doubts begin to creep.
Was I ever meant anything to you,
Or just a means to get what you need?
Now that you’ve got it,
Now that I’m no longer useful,
You want to drop me.
There once was a lad from the border,
Who dreamed of becoming a hoarder.
With treasures galore,
He’d smile and adore,
But his house was a disheveled disorder!
In the quiet of the night, a soft disturbance,
Whispers of the wind bring a sense of verve,
Stars flicker gently, sharing their persistence,
As the world breathes deeply, in calm reserve.
Leaves rustle softly, a drumming heart’s tune,
Echoes of the past in the shadows dance,
Yet in this stillness, beneath the pale moon,
There lies a beauty in every chance.
Embrace the disturbances that stir your soul,
For in every ripple, life finds its role.
Your three words today are:
WEDDING
CELEBRATION
REFORM
In a garden where dreams entwine,
A wedding blooms, a love divine.
With vows exchanged, hearts intertwine,
A celebration, a joyful design.
Amongst the laughter and sweet delight,
They dance through the day, into the night.
Yet from this union, a brighter norm,
Love ignites a gentle reform.
Hand in hand, they’ll face what’s ahead,
With grace and strength, their lives they’ll thread.
Together they’ll build, together they’ll dream,
In the light of love’s everlasting beam.
In the quiet depths of night, where dreams take flight,
An unfortunate echo, a shadowed blight.
Yet within the heart, a fire remains,
A flicker of hope that endlessly strains.
Rejection might sting, like a cold winter breeze,
Whispering softly, “What if you leave?”
But rise like the dawn, with colors ablaze,
For every closed door leads to brighter days.
With footsteps unsteady, but courage aligned,
You’ll forge a new path, leaving doubts behind.
Each “no” that you hear, a chance to rebuild,
A lesson in strength, a heart yet fulfilled.
Embrace the setbacks, let them inspire,
For seeds of resilience grow higher and higher.
In the garden of life, where trials are sown,
Your spirit will flourish, your true self be known.
So when the world tells you that you don’t belong,
Remember, dear soul, you are beautifully strong.
For each misstep is merely a part of the dance,
In the face of rejection, there’s always a chance.
In a garden bright and splendid,
Where the sun shines, rays are blended.
Flowers bloom with colors fair,
Petals dancing in the air.
Birds sing sweetly from the trees,
Whispers carried by the breeze.
Every leaf, a story told,
Nature’s beauty, pure as gold.
Clouds drift softly, white and light,
As day slips gently into night.
In this world, so calm and free,
Splendid peace surrounds me.
Here are this week’s prompts:
In the garden where we used to play,
Children laugh, the sun’s warm ray.
Dreams we cherished, memories bright,
A reunion of hearts, pure delight.
Old friends gather, stories unfold,
Tales of wonder, adventures told.
Hand in hand, we share a smile,
Time may pass, but love’s worth the while.
In this moment, we are truly free,
A reunion of souls, just you and me.

Sunday…
Soft echoes roam,
Fears meet at dawn,
In a dream’s chosen frame,
Hope’s glow, like a warm fawn.
Oft, serene, we chase,
A thread of light gleams,
Daring to embrace
The whispers of dreams.
Minds drift and flow,
Each thought like a stream;
In shadows, we sow
The seeds of our dreams.
Let go of your woes,
Find peace in the night,
For in dreams, we grow,
And everything feels right.
Renewed determination ignites the flame,
Every challenge embraced, never the same.
Stepping forward with courage and grace,
Open hearts trust in the journey we face.
Lasting change starts with a single goal,
Uniting dreams that stir the soul.
Time to reflect, to learn and to grow,
Invincible spirit, ready to glow.
Optimism blooms where hope takes flight,
Nurturing visions, we reach for the light.
In the hush of twilight’s sigh,
Grains dance, like shadows passing by,
Each a story, silent and small,
Carried forth, heedless of all.
–
Through the dunes, a gentle sweep,
Voices of the earth, secrets to keep,
The sighing sands, a lullaby,
Echoes of time, beneath the sky.
–
Fleeting whispers, a soft embrace,
Shadows weaving in an endless chase,
As the winds weave tales of old,
In every grain, a memory told.
–
Listen closely, hear the grace,
In the dance of grains, find your place,
For in the whispers, the world is spun,
A tapestry of night and sun.
I find it amusing that this came up today. The last live performance I attended was last night—my niece’s school dance performance. I had a wonderful time watching her dance with her friends and classmates.
