Upon Entering

M.A.D. Works

Upon entering a room,
your heartbeat starts to race;
your hands begin to sweat,
your thoughts pick up their pace.
Imagined eyes are on you,
every stare feels true—
though no one really notices,
it still feels real to you.

Poetry

Sally the Sun

M.A.D. Works

Sally the Sun wanted some fun,
She dreamed of a bright, merry run.
With her rays all aglow,
She’d outpace the day’s flow,
Chasing light ’til the day was all done.

Song Beyond the News

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM448

Your three words today are:
NIGHTINGALE
NORMAL
NEWS

A nightingale sings softly in the trees,
Turning normal moments into gentle melodies.
Its song drifts farther than the morning news,
A reminder that quiet beauty is ours to choose.

Your three words today are:
MASH
MAST
MARSH

A tall mast stood beside the marsh,
Where winter winds blew cold and harsh.
They stepped into the sodden bog
And churned the frozen earth to mash.

Peek-a-Boo, I See You

M.A.D. Works

Peek-a-boo, I see you
No need to hide who you are
I know, and I like you the way you are

So come out and play with me,
Together we’ll laugh and roam free,
With smiles that shine just like the stars,
Let’s share our joy, no matter how far.

The Memory in the Soil

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM446

Your three words today are:
LOAM
LOATHE
LIST

In the quiet cradle of loam,
Seeds whisper of futures they’ve yet to enlist.
I loathe how time forgets their stories—
how roots grow long, yet names slip from the list.

Still, the earth remembers everything,
holding every rise and ruin close—
a keeper of what we cherish,
and what we choose to let go.

A Windstorm of Emotions

M.A.D. Works
Windstorm


A windstorm of emotions rushes through me,
each one twisting into the next before I can name it.
I can’t tell where one feeling begins
or when another finally lets go—
only that they collide inside me,
leaving me standing in the quiet after the storm.

Poetry

Whispers of the Sea

M.A.D. Works

The sea whispers secrets to shore.
It’s never dull; there’s always more.
Waves dance in the light.
Stars twinkle in night.
Ecstasy
To adore

Breaking the Routine

M.A.D. Works

Everyday is the same,
Nothing new, just a frame.
In routines, we find our way,
Yet within, sparks long to play.

Everyday moments softly blend,
Time drifts on, around the bend.
In the silence, dreams may bloom,
Breaking free from this dull room.
