Love em

Daily writing prompt
Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive?

I love lazy days, it’s a time for reflection, chilling, reading a good book, or finishing off something you wanted to do for a while…

Lazy days..bring them on..

How Can You Sit and Be Silent?

How can you sit and be silent,
while children fade from the sky?
Do your lips not burn with the question
how long, how long, and why?

A man builds thrones from his lying tongue,
and truth is left to die.
Your silence is a shadow’s song
and even shadows cry.

I Want More Kindness in the World

I want more kindness in the world

not the kind that hides in silence,

but the kind that rolls out like sunlight,

warming pavements,

healing strangers.

I want kindness that speaks up

when cruelty takes the stage,

that plants itself firm as an oak

and says, “No. Here, love grows.”

I want kindness that lingers

not a passing smile

but a steady flame,

lighting doorways where the lost wander,

offering bread,

offering rest.

I want kindness in the clumsy,

in the ordinary,

in the hands that hold shopping bags,

in the voices that say hello

and mean it.

I want kindness

not because it is easy,

but because it is strong

a rebellion,

a revolution softer than steel

yet sharper than any sword.

I want more kindness in the world,

because kindness is not small.

It is the thing that saves us,

the thread that mends us,

the promise that

we are still

worth saving.
