IN WAITING AWARENESS

Things you can’t run from,
Quickly walk away from them,
Before they arrive:-
Thus, is natured awareness:
Ready for what things may come:-

Premium Member Kyle

Knack for keeping kisses and kindnesses kindled while
Yoking yearnings to stars without yielding to fear yarns and
Leaping over list of limits doctors labelled as his life so he may
Eagerly enjoy evidence of all his joyous emotions empower

Premium Member The Power of Hope

There’s a spark in our hearts that
urges us to try,
Through storms and challenges, it
accompanies us on the ride,
Infusing our senses that there’ll be
light at dawn,
This flame never dies; it’s the flame 
of Hope.

Shining bright through dark clouds
is Hope,
A force of strength in times of
despair, is Hope,
When we embrace it, we feel relief, comfort and peace,
It’s an endless whisper of joy that
will never cease.

It blooms like a flower in our hearts,
And a balm for the wounds in our
souls,
So look deep into the depths of
both heart and soul for the Spirit 
of Hope,
With its endless scope, anything is
possible.

Hold firmly unto it, and never let it 
go,
As it will lead you safely through 
the uncertainties of the unknown.

Premium Member DOUBT NOT

DOUBT NOT

Like Jesus, doubt not;
You too, are a child of God:
Believe in yourself:-

Summer Challenges

The sun rays from above come into play,
Causing men and beasts alike look thirsty;
They care to stay well-watered every day,
And to protect even each plant and tree.

People opt for light-colored, loose textile,
So they can easily breathe the fresh air;
To aid their body contain heat hostile
Of the scorching sun that's too tough to bear.

Smooth skins apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen,
Wearing hats and sunglasses for their eyes;
They seek shade under the leaves vast and green,
Thanking the sun behind the cloudy skies.

Summer makes us learn symptoms of heatstroke,
Heat-related illnesses say no joke.

Premium Member My Challenges With Friendships

I have challenges in friendships because of what I expect
To me cultivating a friendship is like playing a game of roulette
For this person i tend to go above and beyond or go all out
Not giving it time to see what the person is really about
Its a challenge because they may not work as hard as you do
Then you're wondering if its any worth looking for someone new
Learning lessons from past experiences that you don't want to repeat
Struggling with fear of rejection with new ones you meet
You want to except who they are and take what you can get
But at the same time not be that person that they easily forget
Friendships are a two way street but most drive one way
It would be nice to find a friend with qualities like mine one day
As each one fails and you keep starting all over again
It becomes a big challenge trying to find that special friend.


Challenges And Fears

The appearance of the same alluring dream
brings on adored visions of days already past;
and reliving them with delight, I can guard them 
without fearing that what is precious is never lost!

I do realize that the stronger the feeling,
the deeper is the meaning of each yearning;
buried it under sand dunes where the bagger gets drunk: 
all his sighs, all his tears never depart with the fading dusk!

Far off the desolate coastline, the angriest ocean stars to roar,
sailors unfurl sails, the western wind can diverge their planned route;
it's still daylight, and the young captain begins to show some fear:
how will he stay calm if the tides rise and he doesn't remain resolute?

Can the forces of Nature be fought with extreme courage and stealth
vowing, " The lowest is the fear, the higher is the chance to win. "
Those forces are stronger than anything that has challenged Man
on his long voyages: will anyone less intrepid battle with death?

An Up for Each Down

Sometimes I only feel sad
  Sometimes I can just cry
  Sometimes I lose all hope
  Sometimes I am all alone
  And sometimes I smile wide

  Life certainly has its downs
  Sometimes I drown above water 
  But there’s also a future
  There’s friends to be made
  There’s fun to be had

  Reframe the situation at hand
  Use it to your advantage
  Everything bad is a strength
  You have everything but hopelessness
  You need to use it

Due

It's due...
So what am I going to do?

The funds have gotten low
And the flow has been slow
And I just don't know...

But I got to keep the lights on
I got to keep the water running
Nothing in the fridge or the cupboards, c'mon
Lord, please keep me from jumping

This darn phone keeps ringing
But no good news its bringing

It's due...
And I just don't know what to do.

Premium Member WEATHERING LIFE: A HAIKU

Hurricanes coming,
storms of life challenging me;
my spirit ready

Family in Every Form

Family is not a last name carved,
not a picture frame on a wall.
It’s who answers when you call at midnight,
who shows up when no one else will at all.

Small things happen no one sees at all,
tiny moments nobody recalls.
It’s trust that’s built, not just assigned,
the people you hold when the world’s unkind.

Family is where I find my peace,
Even when the world gets loud.
It’s the people who have my back,
No matter what, they’re always proud.

Family can be blood, but sometimes it’s not,
it’s the crew you cling to when all else rots.
Whoever stays, whoever proves true.
that’s family, at least to you.

Premium Member MEETING LIFE'S CHALLENGES

MEETING LIFE’S CHALLENGES

Hey, don’t you ever be about giving up,
And never be into putting yourself down;
Keep those eyes on the winner’s cup,
And that mind always winner bound:-

Don’t just seek to be good, but well-focused
On being better;
And with this fixed focus, just go on and do
Your very best:-
You must forever remain self-positive and ever be
All together;
Never questioning your God-given ability to survive all
Within your conquest:-

Sailing

There are days when the water exhales softly,
its glass surface holding the light like a promise,
and my boat -
once battered and splintered -
glides steady,
sails catching the wind
at just the moment I need them to.

The storms don’t forget me.
They linger at the edges of the horizon,
a dark smudge
where sky and sea bleed into each other.
I’ve stopped cursing their coming.

The waves still have teeth -
they gnaw at my bow,
leave me clinging to salt-soaked wood,
the tremor of survival
shaking through my hands.

But the wind -
I trust it now.

The calm was never meant to stay.
The storm will rise again,
roaring through me,
dragging me beneath its weight.
But I’ve learned to sail through it,
tilting my sails just so,
carrying the strain, not fighting it -
cutting through the water’s fury,
and moving forward,
even when it’s just an inch at a time.

The sea is vast, endless,
its horizon unwritten.
But for now,
the calm is enough.

And when the storm returns,
I will sail through that, too.

Premium Member Warrior

I am a warrior/
In this life of mine/
Willing to ride or die/
For what I believe in/
The will of steel/
This heart of mine/
Is thumping war drums/
Calling to all/
To fight for your life/
This is not for/
The weak or cowards/
In the end/
Life will end as the prophecy foretells/
For all the hate the world breeds/
Struggling through inner wars/
Temper our souls/
Which brings light/
To our warriors souls/
Stand up and meet/
What's coming head on/
And earn the warriors badge/
Never give up or hide/
From reality/
Willing to fight, no matter what/
We win some, we lose some/
Never stay down a victim/
Battles come in all sizes/
Stand up and be proud/
Of being a warrior in life/

Transcending Challenges

Seeing you makes me wonder,
How your life's been doing over.
I hope you're getting better,
In everything, you'll be greater

You're happy that's good,
You seemed to be in a great mood.
It's like the warmth of the firewood,
On that part I understood.

In the future don't be scared,
Always be ready and be prepared.
So that in problems you won't be ensnared,
From having a harsh outcome, you'll be spared.

Always take care of your health,
As it is considered as wealth.
Sickness is good at stealth,
Make one wrong move, and it can make you melt.

Avoid people who are chaotic,
Most of them are liars and dramatic.
It's ironic,
That you draw those who're problematic.

Enjoy your day,
Always be okay.
In sadness don't stay,
In problems find a way.

Keep smiling,
Avoid overthinking.
Push forward on the path you're taking,
Be successful and achieve everything.

Focus on self-improvement, 
Strive for your achievement.
Make sure to use your talent,
Be like stars as they're eminent.
