A place to show my work
In the quiet of my weary mind,
Thoughts like whispers, hard to find.
A weight of sighs, a foggy maze,
Lost in an endless, thought-filled haze.
Eyes that ache, a heavy heart,
Wishing for rest, a brand new start.
Yet in the stillness, hope will bloom,
Finding light in the shadows of gloom.
In the depths where the seafoam gleams,
A redhead mermaid swims in dreams.
With laughter like music, she twirls so free,
Chasing her hopes beneath the sea.
To distant shores, she glides away,
A bright little splash, in the ocean’s sway.
With a flick of her tail, she bids adieu,
The redhead mermaid, forever true.
In shadows deep, where whispers dwell,
A thirst for knowledge casts its spell.
Through twisted paths, I roam at night,
Seeking truth hidden from the light.
Each lesson learned, a haunting song,
Wisdom’s weight can feel so wrong.
To share the secrets, fears confide,
Dance on the edge, where shadows abide.
Lost in pursuit, both found and lost,
In knowledge’s depths, we pay the cost.
For every truth grasped with delight,
Lurks a haunting shadow, just out of sight.
In the dim glow of the screen,
I tap the keys, a ghost unseen,
A portal to shadows, whispers of night,
Where words turn to poison, devouring light.
Haunting echoes chill the air,
Lost in a labyrinth, trapped in despair,
In this twilight realm, I cease to be free,
A captive to darkness, forever to flee.
Underneath the old oak’s shade,
A timeless spot where dreams are laid.
A whispering breeze, a gentle sigh,
Where lovers met as time passed by.
No name engraved upon its bark,
Yet memories linger, lighting the dark.
With every rustle, each soft, sweet sound,
The echoes of hearts intertwined abound.
In the dappled light, their secrets shared,
Promises made, a bond declared.
Seasons change, but still they stay,
In the heart of the oak, love finds its way.
In a crowd of clowns, so silly and bright,
Juggling balls of citrus, a comical sight.
With lemony laughter and orange confetti,
They danced in the sunshine, oh what a medley!
A grapefruit giggle, a tangerine cheer,
These fruity funny folks spread joy far and near.
So if you’re feeling down, just come take a look,
At the clownish citrus crowd, they’ll lighten your book!
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.
Say Hi, brings smiles and cheer,
A simple hello for all to hear.
To friends and strangers, let kindness flow,
A little “hi” can brighten the glow.
Greet the old man, the child, the unknown,
Wave to the neighbor, show love you’ve grown.
A quick conversation can lift spirits high,
So let’s make the world sweeter, just say hi!
There once was a candidate, Jack,
Whose charm was a clever old act.
But caught in a mess,
With no way to guess,
His career took a tumble—and whack!
So voters, beware of the show,
Check the facts before you bestow.
For behind all the cheer,
Could be trouble near here,
And you’ll end up with “Uh-oh!” in tow!
Summer
Hot days are here
Swimming, plans, vacations
Time to rest and be with others
Fun times
In a chat where we sought to be frank,
Honesty flowed, with no need for a prank.
Words danced in the air,
With truths laid so bare,
A discussion both lively and succinctly blank.
Round and round the circle I tread,
Thoughts in my mind, like whispers, they spread.
Each action I take, trapped in this flow,
No exit in sight, just the same ebb and glow.
Endless the journey, a dance with no end,
A spiral of feelings, around I descend.
Lost in the rhythm, where time has no claim,
Round and round I wander, forever the same.
There once was a man with a pot,
Who always wore a stylish bowtie and top hat,
His loyal and loving pet,
Would often get wet,
From all the droplets the pot splashed on the cat!
Delicate petals unfold in grace
Happiness upon seeing you brightens my day
With you around I feel like nothing can go wrong
Together we blossom, forever to stay.
In the stillness of the night,
A train rolls by, a distant sight,
Carrying dreams, both heavy and light,
Across the tracks, with all its freight.
From bustling cities to fields so wide,
A journey taken, with hope as the guide,
Through valleys and hills, side by side,
The heartbeat of the world on a timeless ride.
With every cargo, a story to tell,
The weight of the past in each sturdy shell,
Onward it travels, through rain and through swell,
This life of freight—a life lived well.
