Relationships are full of moments that make us smile… and moments that frustrate us. Sometimes we clash over the smallest things, and other times we feel deeply understood and supported. Over time, the way we show up — how we communicate, argue, support, or connect — is shaped not just by who we are, but how we understand ourselves and others.

The Forest of Many Hearts

In a vast forest, animals of all kinds lived side by side, but not all understood each other.

There was Owl, quiet and thoughtful, who preferred to watch the stars at night and think before speaking. Sparrow, lively and outgoing, loved to flit from tree to tree, singing songs that made the forest dance.

One day, a great river rose, threatening to flood the forest. Owl immediately began building…

Overthinking — A Full-Time Job Poem

I clock in at sunrise, my mind on repeat,Reviewing scenarios no one will meet.Overthinking pays nothing, this much is true —But somehow it’s work I’m committed to do.

I worry at levels that should earn a prize,Turning whispers to warnings and glances to lies.My brain is dramatic, it loves to perform —Creating disasters that never take form.

I replay conversations again and again —Did I sound…

Family: Handle With Humor Poem

Family is chaos, delight, and fatigue,A lovable, loud, multigenerational league.They lift up your heart, then test your restraint —The saints in your lifewho are also the devil, quite quaint.

Our group chat is buzzing from morning to night,Half gossip, half updates, all typed out in spite.And one rogue aunt shouting in capital letters —As if louder typingwill somehow make things…

The Diet That Lasted 4 Hours Poem

I started a diet at eight in the morning,By noon I was starving, exhausted, and mourning.Four hours of discipline, pure and divine —Then suddenly everything tasted like mine.

I promised myself I’d eat nothing but green,Be virtuous, holy — nutritionally clean.But one little craving, one thought of a bun,And goodbye to the diet… it had a good run.

My lunch was a salad, composed and petite,I felt…

Simplicity softens the noise and brings me back to a sense of inner quiet where meaning can breathe again.

Gym People Who Don’t Actually Exercise Poem

At the gym there are people who stretch for an hour,Then call it a workout and head for a shower.They carry a bottle, they carry a towel —But breaking a sweat?Now that’s not their style.

Some come to “train,” but the truth’s on display:They scroll more steps than they take in a day.The treadmill moves slowly, their thumbs move fast —Their cardio’s great…if texting counts as class.
