In the quiet dawn, she rises, serene, A symphony of grace, unseen. With hands that weave both dream and deed, She sows the world with hope and seed. Her laughter dances on the breeze, A melody of timeless ease. Through trials faced and battles won, She shines, the earth’s resplendent sun. Her eyes hold stories deep and true, A tapestry of skies and blue. In her embrace, the weary rest, She is the calm, the heart’s own quest. From whispered prayers to thunder’s roar, Her spirit echoes evermore. She is the pulse of nature’s song, Unyielding, fierce, yet gentle, strong. In every step, a legacy, O ..read more

Guilt, A very strong emotion, A very dangerous virus. It plagues the human mind And it never leaves you. Everyone feels it But very few acknowledge it.

Where crimes are concealed by cash, Where bodies are considered as things, Where love and friendships are thrown in trash, Where trust and bonds are hung by strings. A world where kindness is mute, A population th ..read more
