i. Missed Opportunities
Opportunities are like stars,
They twinkle above us,
Some you can see, but some are too far,
They sing a quiet chorus,

Some fade from sight,
Getting lost in unknown places,
While others shine bright,
Casting shadows beforth our troubled faces,

Shooting stars fly fast above us,
We reach out to grab one,
 But pull back because it feels dangerous to touch,
A missed opportunity, now the moment is done.
ii. H20
Two hydrogen atoms hold on tight,
To one oxygen atom,
Tiny and bright,

In solid form it is known as ice,
Frozen white crystals,
Particles sit packed and precise,

In gaseous form, it dances a misty delight,
Grey enigmatic fog,
Takes over the night,

In liquid form, it flows with bold grace
Nurturing life,
Setting nature's timely pace.
iii.  Tea Time
The steam from my cup greets my nose,
With each warm sip, chaos goes numb,
Through my nose, the sweet aroma gently flows,
In this small moment, tranquility has come,

Though now my cup is running dry,
Here in this moment, I choose to stay,
To the tea I say goodbye,
But in my belly the moment lays.
iv. Painted Skies
Without the color blue,
Our sky’s would not be painted,
In their beautiful aqua hues,
Waters would appear tainted,

Blue gives the sky and sea their place,
Symbolizing serenity and inspiration,
Blue hugs me with warm embrace,
And fills my mind with motivation.
v. Love
I don’t believe in a casual love,
For there is nothing casual about love,

It’s a timeless force that binds us,
Deadly like the ocean,
Combining the powers of commitment and trust,
It’s waves hit hard with frequent motion,

It shapes the sandy shore,
Carving through tide pools and rocks,
Experiencing it makes you crave more,
Love holds the key and life it unlocks.
vi. Reoccurring Nightmare
In a reoccurring nightmare,
Screams pierce my head,
Cries of despair,
Tossing in my bed,

Vision of mankind's plight,
Dark and eerie,
No help in sight,
Tired and weary,
Reality for many, for me just another night.
