Dive into this artistic journey and discover the transformative power of art and words.

"Point of View"​

Brilliant, bright emergent in the field

The flower stands tall, witness to play

Every event that scurries past revealed

Stories sealed from a point of view with no say..

"Still"

​

Hush be the night

Silence overwhelmed with light

Finally quiet we stand

In spite of vastness grand

​

Quiet echoes the star-filled sky

Dreams emerge and sooth high

Once moment free from restless

Tranquil and left breathless......​​
