Veiled Truths

What personality trait in people raises a red flag with you?

A smile that hides a secret ache,
A kindness worn for self’s own sake.
When truth is veiled in soft disguise,
The heart senses where danger lies.

The Intersection

Stone walls hold stories, quiet in their grace,
While wheels and whispers rush through time and space.
The rain hums softly,  old and new entwine,
Where roots and roads converge, the soul aligns.

Letting Go of Yesterday

If you had to give up one word that you use regularly, what would it be?

If I had to give up, I would give up, “Yesterday”
release its hold and not let it weigh.
The present alone is where I belong,
a fleeting now that forever stays strong.

Eternity Lingers Here

Between these walls of paper and ink,
lie worlds far deeper than we think.
Each spine a doorway, each page a key,
unlocking the vast infinity.

Time folds gently where stories reside,
wisdom and wonder stand side by side.
Amid the clutter, a truth is clear,
eternity lingers, quietly here.

Miles That Return to the Heart

Share a story about the furthest you’ve ever traveled from home.

Beneath distant skies where strangers dwell,
I carried my roots, yet wore them well.
The furthest path was a circle’s art,
For every mile led back to heart.
