Zhenna Jo Poem
Every day I try something new
And hope my plans don't go askew;
Because of this horrible quitting through and through
Thought I'd start knitting
But never thought of committing;
The name 'quitter' seems fitting.
I'll play Badminton for a day
But when it gets hard I'd rather not stay;
In this arena of players who paved their way.
They weren't like me,
Who has a procrastination guarantee;
When the game got tough, they didn't flee.
Thousands of things I said I'd do
That I tried to eschew;
And that's why, they're way overdue.

Zhenna Jo Poem
Teenagers are just
Entering the real world with an
Emotional roller-coaster.
Never understood by others,
All they can do is
Grow with hope,
Excitement, sadness, and fury.
Radiating curiosity are some while others
Seem to already have it figured out.

Zhenna Jo Poem
Here comes Autumn;
Clothes of wool fabric, no more cotton.
The only pumpkin-spiced latte season,
Makes coffee taste good for a reason.
Crusty and dry brightly-coloured leaves,
Fall off the trees in heaps.
As daylight hours reduce,
Fruits and vegetables ripen, increasing the farmers’ produce.
The spooky time of the year,
Halloween, finds children in fear;
As they trick-or-treat their candy,
Dressing up in costumes comes in handy.
Thanksgiving, too, brings people together,
During the time of cooler weather;
Making Fall,
The most inviting season of all.

Zhenna Jo Poem
Some things cannot be changed.
However, you need not react;
It is nonsensical to do so.
Keep your focus on the things you can change
And let the things that you cannot change go.
Take time to let them roll off your back
And stay peaceful.
Getting injured cannot be helped with cries or screams
And requires the positivity of focusing on rehabilitation.
Naturally, there are many more situations when all you can do is
Accept them with grace and resilience because
“It cannot be helped.”
Shikata Ga Nai.

Zhenna Jo Poem
Gratitude is for the wise,
mindfully celebrating life.
Shifting focus from lack in the eyes,
Gratitude is for the wise;
learning from the lows and the highs.
No distinction of times of smiles or strife,
Gratitude is for the wise;
mindfully celebrating life.
Gratitude is for the wise,
shifting focus from lack in the eyes;
learning from the lows and the highs.
No distinction of times for smiles or strife,
mindfully celebrating life;
In peace, though negativity is rife.
