It’s absurdity
With both left to believe
Just fake rhetoric.
The truth begins to grieve now.
In shadows, hope starts to fade.

Awakening Veil
Grey-white misty veil
Touching all in moist contact
A morning dew’s kiss.
Sunbeams filter through the haze,
Awakening to greet day.

Embracing the Present
Choice of happiness
Will ensure no conditions
For the achievement.
Let joy arise in each day.
Embrace the light within you.

The Silent Hunter
Hippopotamus
Lurking below the water
Waiting for something
Wading slowly through the stream.
He suddenly saw his prey.

Whispers of the Night Sky
Here is another collaboration with Carol Anne. Our theme this time was stars. I hope that you enjoy.
MAD
Whispers in the night,
Stars flicker like distant dreams,
Each a silent wish,
Guiding hearts through darkened skies,
Infinite tales in their light.
Beneath the vast sky,
Stars whisper ancient secrets,
Flickering like dreams—
In the stillness of the night,
Hope dances on the cool breeze.

Peace And Comfort
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
Seeking peace within,
A gentle touch, soothing balm,
Comfort found in love.
Comfort at being myself
Comfort without any fear…

You Are Power
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
Power at your grasp,
Controlled strength within your reach,
Harnessing the force.
It was always within you
Now it’s time to take action…

Winter’s Embrace: Collab with Carol Anne
Silent snowflakes fall,
Blanketing the world in white,
Whispers of the chill,
Fires crackle, warm and bright,
Nature sleeps, a peaceful night.
Beneath the soft glow,
Icicles hang like crystals,
Moonlight dances down,
Footprints trace a quiet path,
Winter’s breath, a hush around.

Attract
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
Drawn in by the pull,
Towards a force felt within,
Gravitate and meet.
Attraction is beautiful
From your head down to your feet…

Seismic Scariness
Special thanks to my collaborator on this, Anthony
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
Unexpected jolt,
Abrupt change in direction,
Caught off guard, quick turn.
Everything falls around you
Find a safe place to shelter…

Cuddle to Infinity
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
Arms wrapped around tight,
Comfort found in close embrace,
Love shared in cuddles.
Time almost seems to slow down
As all troubles melt away…

Colours Blend
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
Colors blend and meld,
Light and warmth suffuse the air,
In harmony found.
Primary colours do mesh
to form much more complex ones…

✨New Poem Forms✨

Learning poem forms
It’s a challenge and it’s fun
Here I go again
These rules have me on the run
Count eight syllables or ten???

Making the world beautiful
Sprinkle all around,
and share it everywhere…
Such a treat for all to see…

Together in Words
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
Writing is such fun
Sharing writing, even more
Write with a good friend
Brings a sense of peace within
Words can bring us together
