Timeless Embrace

Image
In the hush of a summer breeze, Love's radiant ember ignites, a beacon that frees. Tender touch, a promise in the night. Soothes the soul, and calms the heart's wild flight. Amidst life's noisy storms, love shines like a beacon bright. A soothing presence that guides us through life's darkest night, Love holds fast, a steady anchor in the turbulent sea. A safe haven where hearts can heal, and love sets us free. Love's gentle words, a calming, summer rain. Soothe fears, and wipe away life's tears and pain. In love's embracing arms, we find our peaceful nest. Where hearts entwine, in love's sweet, endless bliss. Through life's joys and challenges, love remains the same. A constant heartbeat that echoes love's sweet name, In every moment, love's pure light shines through. Guiding us forward, with a love that forever shines true. Happy Valentine!  Courtesy  Chrissaint Trivett

Ripples of Kindness

Image
A single act of kindness, a ripple in the air, Spread love and compassion, beyond compare, A hero neighbor's lawn, a simple deed done well. Brightening lives, kindness starts to swell. In a cafe, a stranger's smile, a movement starts to grow. Pay it forward spreads, kindness starts to show. A warm cup of coffee, a meal to soothe the soul.  Love's seed planted, makes us whole. Hearts beat as one, strangers become friends, Kindness wins, love never ends. The ripple effect, far and wide, Inspires a person, side by side. Let the act of giving out, a never-ending sea, Paying it forward, love's legacy to be, May our hearts, entwined in compassion, forever stay. And love's sweet chain of kindness lead us home each day.

Beyond the Horizon

In realms where love and sorrow blend. I pen these lines to you, my friend. Though fate has led us far apart, Your memory lingers in my heart. The days we shared, the dreams we spun. Now echo faintly, one by one.   Yet in the quiet of the night.  Your presence fills the soft moonlight. I long to hold you close once more.  To feel the love we knew before.   But till that day, I'll keep you near.  In whispered words and silent tears. For love transcends both time and space. And loss can't dim its endless grace. So, as I journey through this life. Your love remains my guiding light.

The Candle's Gentle Light

Image
In days of old, when the Creator''s candle shone bright   upon my head, and lit up the darkest night.  I walked in His radiance, with heart full of cheer.  And His presence illuminated every path that was clear. The warmth of His love, like a flame that burns true .  Guided me through life's joys and fears, and saw me through.  In His light, I found solace, a peace that would not fade, My soul unfolded like a flower, in the warmth of His shade. But now, in darkness, I search for the light  t hat once shone bright, and lit up my night, I yearn to feel His gentle touch once more .  To know His love that dwelled within me, before. In this dark and lonely place, I feel lost and alone.  The shadows seem to whisper, "You are not His own".  But still I hold on, to the memories of old , w hen the Creator''s candle shone, and my heart was made of gold. And though the darkness may seem to reign:   I'll hold on to hope, and the spark th...

Amidst the Inferno's Roar

🔥Warning🔥 This poem contains vivid descriptions of wildfires and may be triggering for some readers. It is intended to honor the resilience and hope of those affected by wildfires, and to raise awareness about the impact of these disasters. †*****************† California's coastal hills, where cypress trees once swayed. Now ablaze, as flames engulf and hearts are dismayed. The inferno's fury, wild and free. Leaves scars that only time can see. To those who've lost their homes, once full of laughter and tears. Now reduced to ashes, memories, and all the passing years. May comfort find its way to you, and memories of joy forever shine through. I stand with you, through smoke and flames. Through every step of the rebuilding journey's pains. With a heart that cares, and a spirit that aspires. My sympathies are with you, like a burning fire. May the United States' spirit prevail. Through trials and tribulations, never fail: may the resilience of its people ...
