Visitors come by

Needed your entertainment

A line starts to form

Laughter dances in the air,   

Joyful hearts await the light.

Fear of what’s out there

Forces us to stay indoors

So we can be safe

Safety in the silence here,   

Yet the world still calls to me.

Forever kisses

Are the best kisses of all

Since they never end

They warm up the heart and soul

Bringing joy and peace to you

Yearning for Dawn

Drowning in the dark

Grasping for some kind of light

For my sinking heart

Waves of despair pull me down,   

Longing for the morning light

Savory Dreams

**

I love hamburgers

Well-seasoned patties of beef

Cooked to perfection

Layers of cheese melting slow,   

Each bite a savory dream

Embrace Your Evolution

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Rengay, Anthony

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

Peace of Mind

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

 Dance of Dragonflies

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Rengay, Anthony

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

Deep anchor of will

Always keeps me in the game

Never giving up

Striving for my very best,

Pushing past all the limits

A slice of heaven

Sweetest delight in a plate

Sheer deliciousness.

I love every scrumptious bite

Heartbreak

Sky blue you left me

Lying in an empty bed

Resting all alone.

Painful tears run down my face

For a love that never was

Embrace Nature

Green trees and bushes
Warm gentle breeze, that pushes
Leaves fly in whooshes.
Nature’s beauty never rushes
Peaceful moments, nature hushes

Diphthongs

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Rengay, Anthony
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/

I’m using diphthongs
To coin a phrase and again
Mean meaning or meant.
To express my thoughts so clear
In words that resonate near

Soft Winter Sunshine

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Rengay, Anthony

Wintery sunshine
Soft pale white translucent rays
Light everything.
Sparkling radiance shines bright.
See the beauty all around.
