Earth was spoken into existence,  
Worlds unfolded at the Maker's call.  
Creatures rose in vibrant persistence,  
As life surrendered, embracing it all.  

But we, the crown of creation’s art,  
Were shaped by hands, not words alone.  
Imprinted with the Maker’s heart,  
Breathed to life from dust.  

This whispers secrets of who we are,  
Crafted with care, uniquely designed.  
A tapestry woven of spirit,soul and body.
Echoing the Maker’s eternal mind.
We Humans are fearfully and wonderfully made. Other creatures were spoken to existence but we were made by the hands of God and then breathedto life.

Ticking,
Ticks,
Tick goes the time—
A rhythm unbroken,
A beat beyond our grasp.

No space to dissipate,
No void in time.
It marches forward,
Unyielding,
Untouched by our pleas.

Time is ever-present,
Yet never ours.
It slips through fingers
Like sand in an open palm,
A constant that we cannot own.

Those who know
Feel the pulse of the clock.
They understand the watch—
It beats for those who seize it,
For those who rise to its challenge.

Do you hear it?
The whisper of moments
Passing unclaimed?

Rise.
Face the ticking drum.
It's time.
Whatever you aspire or dream of, now is the time. Seize the moment and take that step though scary and uncertain, start now. Now is the time.

Across the seas, I chased my dreams,
In foreign lands, or so it seems.
Through endless books and lessons new,
My heart stayed home, forever true.

The campus life, a world away,
Could never dim the love that stays.
I held to memories, clear and bright,
Of family warmth and Christmas light.

Now stepping back on cherished ground,
Home’s joy and comfort wrap me round.
With laughter, tears, and stories to share,
I find my heart’s true solace there.
The joy of coming home after being away for too long

In her gentle hands, I was held,
From her loving chambers, I came forth to dwell.
A woman, yet an ocean vast,
Filled with precious treasures that forever will last.

Vast and virtuous, she stands apart,
One of a kind, a loving heart.
She broods over her own with care,
Nurturing and guiding with a love beyond compare.

She provides, she supplies, and she loves unconditionally,
A blessing from God, a treasure to me.
Unspoken are the sacrifices she's made,
A true personality, in every way.

My guiding light, my shining star,
Forever in my heart, near and far.
She is the figure,
The personality I revere.
A poem to the woman of my life, My Mummy.

Appointment planned, agreed upon,
In perfect harmony, our schedules had won.
The appointed day arrived, I sat and waited,
Glancing at the clock, my patience created.

Time ticked on, the scheduled hour slipped away,
I grew annoyed, my frustration here to stay.
Just when I thought the wait would never cease,
You strolled in, with a smile, and a gentle breeze.

"Elegantly late," you said with a grin,
I raised an eyebrow, my skepticism within.
Is lateness elegance, or just a lack of care?
I pondered this, as you stood there.
Punctuality is beautiful
Lateness is irritating

I will not hold my peace.
He came,
He died,
He rose,
He reigns—our Savior eternal.

My voice will not falter.
I speak with bold authority,
For He is my Commander,
And I follow His call.

My life is His,
And in Him, I live.
He is my one true love,
The eternal Lover of my soul.
JESUS CHRIST

In this evergreen land,  
Only two seasons reign—  
Sunny or cold,  
Wet or dry.  

The sun’s golden rays,  
Rising and setting with grace,  
An awe-striking sight—  
Speechless is the heart that beholds it.  

I love my seasons,  
Breathtaking, timeless.  

Yet, my heart dreams of more—  
The dance of snow in Winter,  
The splendor of Fall’s golden hues,  
Autumn’s crisp embrace,  
And Summer, a familiar friend.  

I yearn to witness them all,  
To paint their beauty upon my soul,  
To live the fullness of their story.
A dream to witness the four seasons
