When feeling lost

Go to the forest

Smell the trees

more…

There were two stones that had been together

They had never been apart

They sat in the bottom of a river

more…

The start of a new week

End of the weekend

A new beginning

more…

Dreams are what we make

From ideas, wants and desires

From our minds and spirits

more…

You are standing tall

Like a warrior in the desert

Dressed in white

more…

Sitting in a café

Or a restaurant

Facing the street

more…

She was staying at the beach

Her room was on the boardwalk

The beach was beautiful

more…

Music lifts one up

It expresses what we feel

Fills our heart and soul

more…

When the hot heat burns into your soul and body

Where breathing is labored

When your skin feels on fire

more…

As the sun drops for the night

The streets clear of cars and people

The emptiness is soothing in a way
