Springs Awakening

Beneath the frost, the earth begins to stir,
A whispered promise runs through root and tree.
The snowdrops bow, as robins softly whir,
And streams, once still, rush laughing to be free.

The dawn grows brighter, gilded rays unfold,
To kiss the buds that dream of April’s light.
In every branch, the tender green takes hold,
Dispelling winter’s long and silent night.

The air is sweet with scents of waking blooms,
As violets shyly peek through mossy beds.
The crocus paints the fields in vibrant plumes,
While sunlit breezes warm the river’s threads.

Oh, spring, you rouse the world from slumber deep,
A tender call that stirs the earth to leap.

The Beauty of Simplicity

In quiet grace, simplicity reveals A beauty far beyond what gold can buy. No gilded frame or polished gem conceals The truth that simple joys will never die.
A meadow’s bloom beneath the morning light, A soft embrace, a whispered, earnest word, These treasures, subtle, pure, and ever bright, Hold more than silken robes or crowns conferred.
Complexity may dazzle and allure with intricate designs that shift and gleam, yet hearts grow weary, strained, and insecure, longing for peace and a gently flowing stream.
Simplicity, the essence of the soul, Brings harmony and makes the spirit whole.

Words NOT Weapons

When voices rage and battle cries ignite,
The world is fractured, torn by endless strife.
Yet peace could rise from shadows of the night,
If words replaced the sharpest edge of life.

Oh, how the tongue, when gentle, heals the pain,
A softer strength than any blade could wield.
For power lies in dialogue, not in gain,
In hearts unarmed, where wounds are gently healed.

Let nations speak with voices calm and clear,
And lay down arms to lift up hope instead.
For peace is not in dominance or fear,
But in the quiet words of love once said.

So, leaders, find your strength in peace’s song—
A voice that whispers where it once was wrong.
