A teacher of English and a poet offering a poetic journey through the landscapes of the soul where gratitude blossoms, love deepens, and silence speaks.
Gifts Of Life
Not awaken while living
To the silent breath flowing
To the mystery of hearing
To the wonder of seeing
Not awaken while living
To the divine weight of giving
To the hidden Hands us holding
To the heavenly call “Live with meaning”
