Love who you are now
Not who you were yesterday
That’s a fools errand
Embrace the new inspired you
For there is no one quite like you

WARLOCK
WITCH
CRONE
The crony witch and warlock went out on the town,
With potions and spells, they danced all around.
With a flick of her wand,
And a spell that was fond,
They turned every frown to a giggle and gown!

Sally was up for a prestigious award,
A moment of glory that she truly adored.
The ceremony beckoned, all dressed in black tie,
Excitement and nerves danced, like stars in the sky.
She needed a gown that would suit the grand night,
One that shimmered and glowed, a true vision of light.
Through countless stores, she wandered and searched,
But nothing enchanted, her hopes slightly perched.
Then, on the day of the event, her heart took a chance,
A gown in a tinsel color—oh, what a glance!
With each step she took as she slipped it on,
She glittered and sparkled; her worries were gone.
Right away, she knew, this was the dress,
A stunning reflection of beauty and finesse.
She’d be the hit of the ceremony, without a doubt,
In a world full of whispers, her joy would shout.
So, off to the gala, with dreams shining bright,
Sally stepped forth, ready to dazzle the night.
With laughter and cheers, the moment drew near,
In that tinsel gown, she conquered her fear.

Too much pondering
Will give you a big headache
Do not overthink
In stillness, I find my way,
Letting go of endless thoughts

Dragonflies pair up
Coupled closely in midair,
United as one.
Sunlight glints off their warm wings,
A dance in the summer sky.

JEWEL
EMERALD
RUBY
In a cave so deep, without any trouble,
Lay a jewel so green, the stunning emerald.
Its sparkle so bright, its beauty so rare,
A treasure so precious, beyond compare.
Next to it rested a ruby so red,
With a glow so warm, like the sun ahead.
Side by side, they shimmer and gleam,
In this magical cave, like a dreamy scene.

Luxury
In a land of luxury, oh so grand,
There lived a pig in a mansion so grand.
He wore a monocle and a top hat so fine,
Eating caviar and sipping on wine.
He lounged in a bathtub filled with champagne,
And danced the night away in the pouring rain.
His butler, a chicken, served him with glee,
As they waddled around in pure luxury.

Principles of Living
What principles define how you live?
I live by the principle of kindness,
Spreading love and joy, never mindless.
Respecting others and treating all fair,
Being honest and showing I care.
I strive to learn and grow each day,
Embracing challenges that come my way.
Living with gratitude and appreciation,
Embracing life with determination.

HANDLE
TOWN
CROWN
In a handle, there was a clown,
Who twirled and danced all around.
He brought laughter to the town,
And everyone cheered at the sound.
With a hat that looked like a crown,
He never wore a single frown.
The silliest clown in the town,
Bringing joy and fun all year round!

Nincompoop
Oh nincompoop, so silly and kind,
You often leave me smiling, I don’t mind.
Your silly ways and funny acts,
Bring joy and laughter, that’s a fact.
You trip and stumble, but it’s okay,
You brighten up the dreariest day.
Beneath your goofiness, you’re really great,
You make life fun, we appreciate.
So, here’s to you, oh nincompoop dear,
Your happy spirit is always near.
In this serious world, you’re a delight,
Your cheerful presence makes everything bright.

Making the Leap
When an old car dies and no longer can be repaired
It’s time for a new one, a decision to be dared
Going to the car dealership, a stampede of horses
Senses on overload, navigating myriad courses
It’s so draining, makes you want to sleep and forget
But the need to get places, it’s a looming threat
Forgetting about it and going without a car
Seems tempting, but reality isn’t that far
Reminded of the places you need to reach
The search for a new car, a lesson in teach
Amidst the chaos, a vehicle to find
To navigate the roads, a peace of mind

CRINGE
COWER
BRUISE
I cringe and cower when I hear yelling
The pain and past bruises in my mind appear
Reminding me of past times, my heart is swelling
With memories that fill me with fear.
But I stand tall and face the day
Knowing that I am stronger now
Those painful memories may never go away
But I won’t let them hold me down.

Honesty in Law
Larry the lawyer can tell no lie
His honesty shines, you can’t deny
In the courtroom, he stands so tall
His integrity admired by all
With every word, his truth is clear
Clients trust him, without any fear
No deception, no deceit in sight
Larry’s honesty is his guiding light

In the heart of my hometown, memories reside,
Where laughter and tears, in harmony, confide.
Familiar faces, streets I know by heart,
A place of belonging, a cherished start.

Mercy
Oh, mercy me, the times we are living in,
Natural disasters, food being stolen,
No one seems to care about anyone else but themselves,
I am scared for what lies ahead.
The world seems to be in disarray,
With troubles and worries at every turn,
It’s hard to find a sense of peace,
When so much around us seems to burn.
Oh mercy me, the times we are living in,
Let’s strive for kindness and empathy,
For in caring for each other,
We can create a better world for you and me.
