Infinite Harmony: A Classical Guitar’s Soliloquy (Triolet)

Nylon strings sing under tender hand

The guitar rings with melodies pure

Music born of an enchanted land

Nylon strings sing under tender hand

Each chord, a flame to be gently fanned

Classical refrains that have endured

Nylon strings sing under tender hand

The guitar rings with melodies pure

From Humble Seeds, Majestic Trees

Welcome to a brighter page

Not born of bluster, free from rage

Kind actions unveil paths anew

Let every step be firm and true

Speak softly—not to brag, but share

Lift others up and tend with care

No prideful claims, no restless need

From humble seeds, majestic trees

Morning Gratitude

Good morning, friend—the light is near

A brand new day is drawing clear

Give thanks for breath, for voice, for art

For music, color, soul and heart

For poems’ spark, for hope that stays

For gentle hands and honest praise

For blessings gifted from above

For all that fills our lives with love

Step into this day with grace in view

Let all you do reflect "Thank you!"

Amphibious Inception

In quiet pools, where waters rest

Amid the woodlands, lush and free

Sunbeams dally in playful jest

Tadpoles swim with endless glee

Through verdant banks and shady grove

In graceful dart, a blithe display

With veiled intent, aqueous rove

In the depths, metamorphic ballet

With every dawn, a nimble rise

To the future's grounded fate

From liquid realms to earthly guise

From pond's milieu to land's estate

Transformation, a watery rite

Passage from this lively bog

With patience, growing, day and night

Once the tadpole, now the frog
