A place to show my work
A luminous light inside you
is begging to come out,
to be seen by all.
Find your courage and give it a shout.
Ignore the naysayers —
don’t let them make you doubt.
You are worth more than you think,
more than the shadows whisper.
Rise, even when the world blinks.
Let your brilliance shimmer.
Light spills across the quiet of the day,
Day folding open beneath its gentle glow.
A gentle thread that stitches sky to soul,
Soul warmed by the hush of morning’s rise.
It lifts the shadows softly from their sway,
Sway giving way to brightness breaking through.
And makes the hidden parts of us feel whole,
Whole in the way only light can make us.
In a world of shadows, where whispers reside,
I seek a horizon, where the bright dreams collide.
With each flicker of light, hope begins to ignite,
Yearning to break free from this long, endless night.
Fingers brush the surface, a journey to unfold,
Chasing soft reflections, stories yet untold.
The darkness retreats as dawn starts to play,
In the warm glow of morning, I find my way.
To see the light
You must brave the night.
To make your life bright,
And banish your fright.

The candlelight sways,
Whispers of warmth in the dark,
Hope dances alive.
Someone is frustrated
By things that can’t change
Change that mindset,
Let your heart rearrange.
Embrace the morning sun,
Let go of yesterday’s weight,
For every end holds a beginning,
In every twist, don’t hesitate.
Breathe deep in the stillness,
Find strength in the calm,
Each moment a fleeting whisper,
A chance to reclaim your charm.
Let worries drift like autumn leaves,
Soar with winds of hope anew,
In the garden of your spirit,
Plant dreams and watch them bloom.
Though storms may shake your foundation,
And shadows may cloud your day,
With courage, you can rise again,
And illuminate your own way.
Bright light shines through the window so clearly.
Waking you up from deep sleep
Time to start the day now.
In a world of shadows, where whispers reside,
I seek a horizon, where the bright dreams collide.
With each flicker of light, hope begins to ignite,
Yearning to break free from this long, endless night.
Fingers brush the surface, a journey to unfold,
Chasing soft reflections, stories yet untold.
The darkness retreats as dawn starts to play,
In the warm glow of morning, I find my way.
In the night it glows,
Guiding whispers through the dark,
Hope’s warm flicker shines.
Stars above watch close,
Silent wishes take their flight,
Dreams dance in the night.
Light
Bright, radiant
Shining, glowing, flickering
Radiance, Beam, shadow, abyss
Enveloping, cloaking, diminishing
Gloomy, ominous
Dark
Faith soft hope
Guiding hearts through storms
Embrace of light
MAD 11/1/24
Heart’s whispered desire
Floating on a silver dream
Hoping for a spark
But lost in the darkness
Yearning for a light to flicker
Guiding the way through the dark
