Ode to the Ocean

...Ode to the Ocean

All-encompassing, a vast blue might,
Billions of droplets, reflecting light.
Coral castles, where sea creatures roam,

A CABIN FILLED WITH MEMORIES

I’ve said this before (and I’ll likely say it again!) about our cabin in the trees…
How it’s not just a cabin…it’s a cabin filled with memories.

I Am Not A Brick

...They shaped the mold before I arrived,
A perfect cast where all compiled.
I was meant to be poured, settle and fit,
But I hardened too soon and fractured it.

In the hospital, the room so still
A feeling of melancholy, my heart will feel
the music of a story, told by the nurse
who hears the whisper, a quiet curse

Euphoric Love

...Love is a kaleidoscope of colours
Dawn of spring after each winter season
A glass of champagne to uplift my spirit
Hand in hand
Love came to me like a warm fire
To greet the warmth with her kiss...

The ugly belly of robber barons

...To make money do what you may
And let no rules come in your way,
Capitalism blares
As laissez-faire declares
Wild ways to thievery,
Packaged nigh cleverly
For robber barons of today,
Who shoul...

Symphony of Souls

...In corners of the world, where rays smile bright,
There are furry friends, speaking souls in the light.
Cats that prance and dogs that bark,
In every heartbeat, they wait for us with a spark.

Meeting gthosts

...As a young four- to five-year-old child,
My wish to meet ghosts grew eerie and wild.
We lived a mile from a riverbed’s shore,
Where tales of witches and spirits galore,
Roamed through the night i...

The Accidental Experiment

...I remember the day my code first compiled  
    the rush of creation, of bringing order to chaos  
each line a neuron firing,    each function a heartbeat  
my digital child born into a world of i...

Home

But my heart lays with you
Forever as if it always knew 
That the cure to my illness was to stay around
Forcing me to understand just how
So I sit and think o...

Still moments burnt across my thoughts,
in hues of melodies, bright and sure,
trembling on seas of hope,
resting beneat...

God Doesn't Make Mistakes

His light would overcome
The worst fears, the darkest nights.

When He silenced the thunder’s roar, He knew
His voice would calm the seas, the winds
