Masks everywhere,
caution aplenty,
as malls, parks, and stadiums
sit deserted,
so empty.
Hunger,
job losses,
companies downsizing,
desperation palpable,
the anger is rising. … More When Autumn leaves
With this rising,
may you rise above
the murky waters of your past.
May you be elevated beyond who you are,
to who you are becoming.
May the Light of this day – this start,
be accompanied by Truth, Courage, Wisdom, and Opportunity. … More Let it Flow: Rise
Before the day begins,
take some time
to hear the chirping birds outside:
nature’s morning symphony
played day after day,
in sickness and in health. … More Monday Morning Thoughts

A new world. A new vision.
Lying with one eye covered,
I’m almost floating in the clouds:
engulfed in blue and white;
no longer constrained
by the physical limits down below:
no buildings, no trees,
no electricity,
nor concerns to capture my time. … More Let it Flow: A Bird’s Eye View
From an early age, I loved reading. It was my favourite pastime: the thrill of delving into other worlds…the words on a page coming to life. Naturally, this progressed to an affinity for creative writing. Teachers would compliment my work and encourage me to write outside of school.

on this gorgeous campus
which will be home for the next three, four, or more, years. … More O, what a week
