Childhood Whispers

M.A.D. Works

In a world of whispers, where shadows play,
I found my refuge at the end of the day.
Beneath the old oak with branches wide,
My secret haven where dreams could hide.

A patch of soft moss, my throne of green,
Surrounded by wonders, a magical scene.
With laughter like echoes of time held still,
I wove my adventures with a heart full of thrill.

There, in the stillness, where sunlight would dance,
I’d lose myself deep in each fanciful glance.
A kingdom of make-believe, safe from the race,
Forever cherished, my childhood’s embrace.

The Hero’s Mirror

Your three words today are:
HERO
HAND
MIRROR

Three Things Challenge #MM25 | pensitivity101

In a town where the bright sun glows,
Lived a hero with a hand full of woes.
He picked up a mirror, all shiny and round,
Admiring his face, not a flaw to be found.

“Oh, what a grin, I’m the best!” he declared,
But a bird flew by and loudly impaired.
With a flap and a squawk, it knocked off the mask,
Our hero just smiled – what a funny task!

He waved like a king, “Let’s dance!” he exclaimed,
The mirror just laughed, “You’re funny and famed!”
They twirled in the sun, amidst laughter and beams,
A hero, a hand, and a mirror of dreams.

NUANCE

Three Things Challenge #MM27 | pensitivity101

In a world so bright and fair,
We find a path, our dreams to share.
With hearts that aim to keep it neutral,
We navigate life, so rich and factual.

Each moment holds a gentle nuance,
In every glance, a silent dance.
We walk together, hand in hand,
Finding peace in this vast land.

Angels flying near
Providing reassurance
To stresses today.
Whispers of hope in the breeze,
Guiding hearts to brighter days.

Melody of the Garden

M.A.D. Works
RDP Friday! Musical!
RDP Friday! Musical!

In the garden where dreams twine,
A breeze whispers, soft and fine.
Leaves sway with a rhythm, so lyrical,
Nature dances, it’s all so musical.

Sunlight sparkles, a golden glow,
Birds chirp sweetly, a vibrant show.
Every moment, a note in the air,
Life’s melody sings, everywhere.

Your three words today are:
SPINE
WHACK
TACK

There once was a fellow with spine,
Who danced with a rhythm divine.
With a whack and a tack,
He put on quite the act,
As he twirled beneath bright, shining pine.

Have Faith

M.A.D. Works
Have Faith
Have Faith – Word of the Day Challenge

In the dark when hope feels small,
Whisper softly, hear the call.
When the road seems rough and long,
Hold on tight, be brave, be strong.

Through the storms and skies so gray,
Keep your heart and fears at bay.
For in the end, when shadows part,
You will find joy in your heart.

So when the days are filled with strife,
Just remember, have faith in life.

In the Shadows of Chaos

M.A.D. Works
Special thanks to my collaborator on this Rengay, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

I’ll recuse myself,
I’m too close to disaster
To weigh in on it.
In shadows, silence lingers,
Hope flickers through the chaos.

Magnolia

M.A.D. Works
RDP Sunday: magnolia
RDP Sunday: magnolia

In the garden, soft and fair,
Stands a magnolia, delicate and rare.
With petals white, like whispers of spring,
It dances gently, as the sweet birds sing.

Beneath the sky, so blue and wide,
The magnolia blooms with graceful pride.
In its beauty, the world seems free,
A moment’s peace, just you and me.

Disappearing Dreams

M.A.D. Works
FOWC With Fandango — Close

Close I came, to dreams so near,
A fragile thread I held so dear.
One small slip, the thread unwound,
And all I sought could not be found.

Close it stayed, but not my own,
A fleeting shadow, now unknown.

Embracing Shadows

Your final three words for this week are:
REFLECT
REVERSE
RILE

Three Things Challenge #MM26 | pensitivity101

In quiet moments, I reflect,
On paths I’ve walked, the hearts I’ve checked.
Reversing time, with thoughts that swirl,
In the dance of dreams, emotions twirl.

Yet in the silence, feelings can rile,
A tempest brewing, in the heart’s deep pile.
But through the storm, I find my way,
Embracing shadows, welcoming day.

Hard boiled eggs and some candy
