What I Know for Sure

List 10 things you know to be absolutely certain.

The sun will rise though nights are long,
Change will hum its lifelong song.
A kind word mends what time forgot,
And love still heals more than it ought.
The quiet mind will always know,
Peace begins where judgments go.
Joy shared doubles, pain confessed,
We’re all just souls on some strange quest.
The body speaks in silent tone,
And you, dear heart, are not alone.

If I Could Host a Dinner

If you could host a dinner and anyone you invite was sure to come, who would you invite?

I’d call the wise, the kind, the true,
The ones who see a soul right through.
Not just the famed with stories grand,
But those with warmth in heart and hand.

A poet, a monk, and my children too,
With wonder wide and joy so true.
And if love came and took a seat,
That night, the stars would taste so sweet.

Rhythms Within

What time do you go to bed and wake up currently?

I rest when the stars begin to gleam,
And rise with calm before day’s first beam.
No fixed alarms, just nature’s nudge,
My inner clock refuses to budge.

While the world chases minutes and hours,
I move by sunrays and moonlit showers.
Time, to me, is not a chain,
It’s a quiet flow I don’t restrain.

Painted Tomorrows

What are you most excited about for the future?

The future is an imagination, bold,
Not something fixed or bought or sold.

It lives in dreams that stretch and rise,
In silent hopes and open skies.

We shape it not by fear, but art,
With every beat of a believing heart.

I’m eager for dawns I’ve yet to see,
For stories still unfolding in me.
