Prompt: Imagine yourself as a ray of sunlight. Write a poem exploring the journey you take as you enter a room and illuminate the space.
Dancing Dawn.
Squeezing through the windows, a bitsy ray of white,
Potent and full of life, sole glimmering beam of light.
Invading a room pale dark, attempts to desperately fit in,
Unaware of the surrounding dark, that lingers yet within.
The blinds honor the path for the illumination it holds,
The night gradually turns sullen, awaiting what shall unfold.
Sunlight cuddles into the spaces, silently sitting still,
Awaiting further visitors who shall lazily refill –
And bring into our presence, the spectacle we call “day,”
The darkness starts to ebb, but sunlight is here to stay.

Get ready to dive into the world of poetry with my upcoming book, “Echoes of Existence”, hitting shelves in May 2024. It’s filled with heartfelt poems inspired by real-life experiences and emotions that we all can relate to (including poems on work-life balance, woohoo).
As we get closer to the big reveal, stay tuned for sneak peeks, behind-the-scenes stories, and updates about bringing this book to life. So, mark your calendars and spread the word!
Until next time,
