Gentle Me!

In this busy world and all its noise 

I often find myself feeling overwrought 

And though I try my best to stay poised 

I sometimes feel like I’m coming up short 

It’s in these moments that I must remind 

Myself to be gentle and kind to me 

To take a step back and not be confined 

By the standards that I should be 

For I am human, with flaws and mistakes 

And that’s okay. It’s just a part of life 

So, instead of dwelling on what I can’t make 

I’ll focus on the beauty and joy that’s rife 

And in this way, I’ll be kind and gentle 

To myself and to others. Indeed it’s fundamental! 

Blessings and Love!

Built Tough!

In the motherland where the winds whispered tales of old,

There lived a soul, both brave and bold.

Forged in fires of trials untold,

A spirit emerged, built tough, we’re told.

This soul, they say, faced storms with a grin,

Battles within, they’d always win.

Mountains of fear, they’d begin

To climb with a heart that never grew thin.

“Built tough,” they’d chant, their voices proud

Echoing loudly, far beyond the crowd

Not just in body but spirit unbowed

A beacon of strength, standing out, unclouded

Through valleys of shadow, under skies so grey

This soul marched on, come what may

With every fall, they’d find a way

Rising anew to seize the day

Their armor, not of steel but of will

Crafted in resilience, impossible to kill

With every challenge, their spirit grew still

More formidable, with each uphill

Here’s to the soul, built tough, it’s true

A narrative poem, a tribute overdue

May their story inspire and encourage you, too

To build your toughness in all that you do!

-Built Tough-

Tough Times 

To Keep Your Cool!

When the heat of the moment starts to rise

And tempers flare before our eyes

Remember to take a deep breath or two

And count to ten before you do.

Find a quiet place to clear your head

And focus on your thoughts instead

Take a walk or listen to some music

To calm your nerves and help you choose it.

Think about the situation at hand

And what you can do to take a stand

But always keep your cool and be kind

To find a solution that’s fair and aligned.

So, when the world around you starts to spin

And you feel like you just can’t win

Remember to stay calm and stay true

And you’ll find a way to make it through.

Just Keep Your Cool!!

Blessings and Love!

Thank you for reading.

Pink Cyclamen!

Pink cyclamen, how you bloom 

In winter’s gloom 

Your petals are delicate and fair 

Amidst the frosty, frigid air 

Your leaves are heart-shaped and green 

A sight that’s rarely ever seen 

In snow and ice 

Your beauty brings a welcome spice 

You grow in pots and flower beds 

A joy to see as I lay my head 

Your fragrance is sweet and pure 

A treasure that will forever endure 

Pink cyclamen, how you shine 

A beacon in the winter’s grind 

A reminder that life goes on 

Even when the cold seems too strong !

Blessings and Love! 

Thank you for reading. 

Discovery of Self!

Embarked on a journey

To find my true self

Guided by intuition

And the whispers of my heart

Through mountains and valleys

And oceans deep and wide

I searched and I wandered

With an unrelenting stride.

And as I journeyed further

A truth began to unfold

That the answers that I sought

Were within me all along.

So I turned inward

And listened to my soul

And found the adventure

That led me back to home.

Now I walk with purpose

And a deep sense of peace

For I know that I am whole

And my spirit is at ease.

This adventure of self-discovery

Has led me to a place

Where I am free to be myself

With love and boundless grace.

-Discovery of Self-

Blessings and Love!

Pure Intentions 

My king, my love, my heart’s delight
With pure intentions, I hold you tight
Your regal grace and noble presence
Have captured me, my soul, my being

In every breath, I feel your love
A gift from God, a gift above
Your gentle touch, your soothing voice 
Have made my heart rejoice

With every passing day, my love for you 
Grows stronger, deeper, and truer
I pledge my heart, my soul, my all
To love you always, to heed your call 

My king, my love, my heart’s delight 
With pure intentions, I hold you tight

-Pure Intentions- 

Blessings and Love! 

Thank you for reading. 

Music and Dance

Music and Dance, a wondrous pair

A story they can always share

A rhythm shared in every beat

A gentle sound that can’t be beat.

A twirl of the feet, a turn of the head

A vision of beauty, all are led

A lively tune, a graceful sway

A harmony of music and play.

A harmony of all the senses

The sight and sound of such intense

A ringing in the ears and soul

An uplifting feeling that takes control.

A sweet sensation, a lively show

A union of music and dance, we all know

A story that can never be told

A harmony of body and soul.

Music and Dance, wondrous perfect pair

Compromise 

I used to think that I was right 

That is what I thought was always bright 

But then I learned a life-long skill 

To compromise and bend my will 

It’s not about who’s right or wrong 

But finding common ground along 

To give and take, to meet halfway 

And find a solution every day 

It’s hard to learn this way of life 

To put aside internal strife 

But when we learn to compromise 

We find a way to end the lies 

Now, I try to compromise 

And meet the other halfway 

And though it’s not always easy 

It’s worth it every day! 

Blessings and Love!
