Set My Soul Afire
“Do more of what lights your soul on fire.” That is the intriguing quote on the cover of my new journal. It is the reason I was drawn to it. The verb do suggests action, enthusiasm, movement. This is not talking about binge-watching your favorite show or YouTubers, or spending hours on social media debating ...My Fairytale Dream (A Poem)
I closed my eyes And dream Of a time of Lords and Ladies Knights that fraught for honor In my dream I see A castle upon the hill Surrounded by peril Fire-breathing dragon Within is a Princess Beautiful of fire, lock, and emerald orb …Trapped… Until one day, on the back Of a great white ...When It Rains, It Pours, But You Need To Keep Walking
When it rains, it pours. It’s kind of funny– I mean this May, Phoenix had a whopping total of zero inches of rain, yet I still found myself drenched the entire month.
