Beyond the Mirror

Every day before the mirror we stand,
Tracing the years with a thoughtful hand.
Do you welcome the reflection you see,
Or long for the face that used to be?

Yesterday echoed with laughter and cheer,
Yet some memories still leave a sear.
Moments of joy and choices made,
Lingering softly, refusing to fade.

Some wish the mirror faced the rear,
Leaving the past forever near.
Hoping time would gently pause,
Undoing every wrinkle and flaw.

But no mirror can alter the truth we wear,
Nor hide the weight of love and care.
For every line upon the face
Marks a lesson, a trial, a saving grace.

Whatever path we choose to steer,
One day we must see ourselves clear.
Beyond the surface, beyond the skin,
Lives the soul that dwells within.

So each time into the mirror we peer,
Let honesty replace all fear.
For beauty is more than youth’s display;
It is the light that will not fade away.

And until this earthly form must disappear,
We’ll pause before the mirror year by year.
Not merely searching for who we’ve been,
But embracing the person we’ve grown within.

What Really Is Hope

What really is hope?
A quiet light when shadows grope.
A longing for solace through life’s embrace,
A gentle strength in every place.

To some, it stretches broad in scope,
A fragile thread, a steadfast rope.
Some seek escape through fleeting dope,
While others sink to whine and mope.

Yet those who find enduring peace
Learn that burdens slowly cease.
They rise again, they gently cope,
Held together by the hand of hope.

The sun and moon still share the sky,
Reminding hearts to always try.
Though roads may bend and dreams may slope,
Keep reaching onward—never lose hope.

So journey on through joy and strife,
With faith to guide your precious life.
For every soul must search and grope,
Until it learns what truly is hope.

Absent Are the Thoughts of the Unknown

Absent are the thoughts of the unknown,
Where mystery lingers beyond what is shown.
Too often we settle for what we can see,
Forgetting the wonders that long to be free.

The horizon stretches farther than our eyes,
Holding quiet answers beneath endless skies.
Every unanswered question, every unopened door,
Invites the searching heart to seek a little more.

Fear builds walls where curiosity once grew,
Convincing us the familiar is all that is true.
Yet life unfolds in ways we cannot foresee,
Revealing hidden treasures patiently.

The unknown is not a place to dread,
But a path where hope is gently led.
Each uncertain step, though wrapped in doubt,
Teaches what faith is all about.

Dream beyond the limits of today,
And let your spirit find its way.
For the greatest journeys are often begun
By embracing what cannot yet be won.

Absent are the thoughts of the unknown—
Until a restless heart makes them its own.
Then darkness yields to dawning light,
And wonder fills the soul with sight.

So never fear what lies ahead,
Nor walk the road with hope long dead.
The unknown carries tomorrow’s song,
Reminding us where we truly belong.

Life’s Daily Hymn

What is your life’s daily hymn,
The quiet song that stirs within?
What keeps you standing, strong and true,
When storms conceal the brightest view?

When the world, like a withered rose, grows dim,
And shadows gather at the rim,
Don’t lose yourself in endless doubt,
Or let despair keep hope shut out.

Life is beautiful when seen anew,
Even in moments touched by blue.
A fleeting glance, a grateful heart,
Can turn the darkest day to art.

No need to remain where spirits grow grim,
Let courage rise from deep within.
Let hope become your faithful vim,
Your ever-present daily hymn.

For every dawn brings something new,
A chance to dream, begin, pursue.
Remember this wherever you’ve been—
Life is beautiful… let that be your daily hymn.

Strawberry Moon

By Sam Tumblin

I gaze with delight at the Strawberry Moon,
Now it lingers in my thoughts like a timeless tune.
Its radiant glow still colors my mind,
A quiet enchantment that’s gentle and kind.

Longing once more for its crimson embrace,
To stand beneath heaven and cherish its grace.
Around and around beneath moonlight I’d spin,
Letting its wonder awaken my spirit within.

Though the night has faded and dawn claimed the sky,
Its memory remains wherever I lie.
I gaze with delight at the Strawberry Moon,
Forever returning to my heart like a tune.

I asked you to set me free,
To escape this endless misery.
For sometimes love becomes a prison,
Where hope is buried without reason.

It’s better now to walk away,
Than beg for one more empty day.
Entombed within a silent heart,
Knowing we were worlds apart.

The echoes linger in my soul,
Leaving wounds that time can’t console.
Though memories knock upon my door,
I cannot live there anymore.

So let the silence have its say,
As fading shadows drift away.
For freedom often wears disguise,
Hidden behind tear-filled eyes.

I’ll carry scars that time has sewn,
Yet walk this road on my own.
Not every ending is defeat—
Sometimes surrender is retreat.

If ever our paths should cross again,
May there be no lingering pain.
Only gratitude for what once grew,
And strength for all we’ve both been through.

I wish back for those days When your smile would greet the morning light, A single glance from your beautiful face Could make the darkest hours feel bright.

My heart would race at a fevered pace, Unable to hide the joy inside. Every moment beside you Felt like the turning of the tide.

I love you in a thousand different ways, With every sunrise and every night. In whispered dreams and silent prayers, You remain my guiding light.

If time would grant one precious gift, I’d ask for nothing more to prove, Than one more chance to hold your hand And wrap our souls in endless love.

Though seasons change and years may pass, My devotion will never stray. Girl, forever is where I belong— Forever, I want you to stay.

So if these words should find your heart, Know every verse is true. No matter where this life may lead, My favorite place will always be with you.
