Premium Member Ekphrasis on The Painter's Daughters
They sit~ not as muses, but as morning light caught in linen~ one leaning gently into the other’s calm, as if sisterhood were a soft hush between breaths. The elder holds a silence far beyond her years, her fingers a quiet shield over the other’s fluttering world. She is stillness, composed, watchful~ a portrait of care before language names it. The younger rests wide-eyed, soul blooming, a child...

Premium Member Self Esteem
"She looks just like you!" They say, and I beam! But they're saying much more than their saying seems… For I'd never say to her what I constantly say to me… ("You don't measure up, you can't be enough! You're ugly, you're stupid, just keep your mouth shut!") My mind in shock, my heart so hurt, To even think about speaking...

Daughters of the moon
On the streets at night lined up Like a parade waiting to be picked Bracing the cold nights Hoping to get something before the night ends To hopeless arms, they'll lay Tough times forcing them out of options And life has to be lived They do anything to get by To strangers, they throw themselves But they don't fall Cause it's just for...

An Ode to my Twin Daughters
My dear daughters, my two heartbeats, Together, may you find life’s sweetest feats. Like two waves in the endless sea, May you flow together, wild and free. Like twin rays from the same warm sun, May you shine together as one. Like two notes in a perfect song, May your bond stay deep and strong. Fight and play, but let pride take no...

On the day of daughters
If in love to wife desire’s rife, And to son there seems ambition, To daughters, tranquil run waters. If she may outgrow father’s lap, She always stays within heart’s map, Distance may grow, gulf there’s, nor gap. A daughter is like a rainbow, A lifelong source that gets to grow, A spectrum’s widest range to draw. Warmer is she than warmest wools, Let...

Plea for our daughters and sisters life
#Plea_for_our_daughters_and_sisters_lives No no no...as the last words of a daughter, begging her murderer, begging for her life and still he continued and ebbed the soul out of her body. The mood in South Africa is now down, heavy dark cloud hangs over us all, not just clouds, but traumatized spirits of daughters and sisters, everywhere everyone...

Premium Member Roots and Wings
Listen up, my daughters, let me break it down Life's a stage, but you're not here to clown You've got to face the music, face it strong Face your fears, show the world where you belong Don't let them clip your wings, wings are meant to soar Winging it sometimes, that's what life is for But root yourself in values, roots...

A day like any other, yet so divine, When you first breathed, and your life entwined with mine. Years have passed, each moment a treasure, Your growth and joy are beyond any measure. From first steps to first words, I've watched you soar, Each milestone is a gift I couldn't ask for more. Your laughter, a melody that brightens my days, Your...

A Daughters Song
In distance, a daughter's heart does ache, Mentally wounded by her mother's stake. Words flung forth, cutting deep within, Leaving scars unseen, a battle she can't win. A mother's love should nurture and heal, But here, a pain that time can't conceal. From afar, a presence felt so near, Leaving the daughter's soul in constant fear. Bound by blood, but torn by the...
