Shrinking Thoughts

Shrink, shrink, little head,
Decrease the thoughts that fill my bed.
Curb the worries, make them small,
In the end, I’ll conquer them all!

FROST
ICE
PRICE

Frosty the snowman was quite precise,
In his fashion choices, he took no advice.
His hat and scarf came at a hefty price,
But his cool demeanor was never on ice!

SETTLE
METAL
BRONZE

Oh, once there was a knight named Settle,
Whose armor was quite shiny and metal.
In the jousting ring, he aimed for gold,
But alas, his skills were not that bold.

He clashed and clanged with all his might,
But always ended up with bronze in sight.
He’d hang his head, feeling quite glum,
While the crowd would cheer for the number one.

So Settle the knight, so full of grace,
Would polish his bronze with a sad embrace,
And though he aimed for the highest throne,
Bronze was the metal he made his own.

UPPER
CUP
CURSE

Silly Kitty

I once found an enchanted upper,
That turned my cat into a playful cur.
But when I drank from the mystical cup,
I accidentally cast a feline curse.

Now my kitty’s stuck in a silly spin,
Chasing tails with a mischievous grin.
I wish I could reverse this furry curse,
And return my pet to its normal purr.

PATHETIC
FEEBLE
WEAK

Pathetic, feeble, weak I may seem,
But in my mind, I reign as supreme.
With muscles like noodles, and no strength to speak,
I’m a champion in the game of being unique.

I may lift a feather and call it a feat,
While others carry boulders down the street.
My feeble attempts at looking tough,
End up being laughably not so rough.

Pathetic, feeble, weak, they say with a grin,
But I embrace it all and take it on the chin.
For in my world, strength is overrated,
I’ll stick to being me, never outdated.

THONG
THRONG
PONG

In a bustling city throng,
There danced a lone thong,
It bounced and pranced all along,
Singing a strange old song.

With a ping and a pong,
It captivated the throng,
Gathering a curious throng,
To join in the odd, merry song.

INK

In the quiet of my inner space,
I dip my pen into the ink,
And bring to life a scene or face,
Drawing stories with each distinct link.

In the stillness of the night, dreams draw near,
In the drawer of the mind, memories appear.
Sketches of the past, intricately drawn,
In the heart’s hidden drawer, emotions spawn.

Dog Pact

There was a pack of friendly dogs,
Whose loyalty was unmatched in their logs,
They made a pact to return all the gold,
That the silly cats stole, brazen and bold,
From the pockets of their owners, in their sly, sneaky scrolls.

ELIMINATE
CONQUER
OVERCOME

To overcome social anxiety
Is a challenge,
That needs not to be conquered or eliminated.
For anxiety is not all bad;
It can be your friend,
When it does not go overboard.

Embrace the flutter of the heart,
The cautious thoughts before you start,
For in these moments, you will find,
Strength and courage in your mind.

Acknowledge anxiety’s gentle hand,
As it guides you through this unknown land.
But remember, you hold the key,
To keep anxiety where it should be.

RAFT

In a daft draft, she began to craft,
A poem on a solitary raft,
Words swirling like a wild whirlwind,
On her makeshift paper, her thoughts pinned.

When tears fall, we see the pain,
A wail escapes, like pouring rain.
We sob and ache, our fragile hearts,
Seeking solace as sadness departs.

Anxious thoughts won’t seem to go away.
Emotions running wild, hard to control,
But in the end, peace consoles the soul.

There once was a day so horrific,
Work conflicts made it quite specific,
But chatting with a friend,
On his book had no end,
Making the mundane truly terrific.

TABLET

KEYS

In the dim glow of the screen,
I tap the keys, lost in a digital dream,
My tablet a window to worlds unseen,
Where words flow like a serene stream.
