flower blossoms

Blossoms of Hope


In the garden's gentle sway,

A cause set forth on a sunny day,

Seeds were sown with hope in sight,

Effecting blooms of colors bright.


As seasons turn and years progress,

The garden thrives, a sweet success,

Cause and effect, a natural dance,

Life's eternal, ever-changing chance.


The butterflies and bees alight,

Drawn by nature's pure delight,

Each petal kissed by morning's dew,

In this garden, dreams come true.

Echoes of Kindness


In a world where actions echo loud,

Cause and effect, a steadfast crowd,

Kindness sown, love's bonds collect,

Harvesting joy, the world's effect.


But heed the shadow of hate's embrace,

For negative actions leave their trace,

Cause and effect, a truth revealed,

Our choices shape the wounds not healed.


In acts of grace, compassion's song,

Hearts entwined, together strong,

Kindness ripples through each day,

A force that never fades away.


 

water rippling on water

Ripples in Tranquility


A ripple in the tranquil pond,

A cause, a stone, to depths beyond,

Circles spreading, water's dance,

Cause and effect in nature's trance.


Yet stillness brings a calming grace,

Cause and effect, in this quiet space,

Reflecting on life's eternal stream,

We find ourselves in the peaceful dream.


The koi beneath the surface glide,

In the quiet, they reside,

Their world of wonders, hidden deep,

In the pond, their secrets keep.

Stellar Symphony


In darkness, stars ignite the night,

A cause unseen, a stunning sight,

Their twinkle, a celestial effect,

Cosmic dance, we must respect.


In galaxies vast, they're born and die,

Cause and effect in the cosmic sky,

For every star that fades away,

Another shines, a promise to stay.


The constellations tell their tales,

Of ancient ships with celestial sails,

A stellar symphony, a cosmic rhyme,

In the vastness of space, they mark the time.


 

womans eloquent dance on paper

Words Eloquent Dance


The pen's stroke upon the page,

A cause for thoughts to disengage,

Words flow forth, ideas connect,

Ink and paper's sweet effect.


Within these lines, emotions soar,

Cause and effect, forevermore,

In written words, we find our voice,

A timeless art, our hearts rejoice.


The poets' verses, the novel's prose,

In words, our deepest feelings chose,

A tapestry of thoughts and dreams,

In every word, a world it seems.


 

seas roll onto beach as light bursts through clouds

Nature's Fury and Renewal


A thunderclap, a flash of light,

A cause, a storm, in darkest night,

Raindrops fall, and rivers swell,

Nature's fury, her story to tell.


Yet after tempests, skies turn blue,

Cause and effect, the world renews,

The rain that falls brings life's rebirth,

A testament to nature's worth.


The lightning's flash, the thunder's roar,

Nature's power we can't ignore,

In her wrath, a lesson found,

That from destruction, life can abound.

Web of Life


In the web of life, we find,

Cause and effect intertwined,

Species thrive or fade away,

Human choices, the price we pay.


For every loss, a chance to learn,

Cause and effect, we must discern,

To protect the earth, our sacred trust,

In harmony, all life we must adjust.


The wolves that roam the forest's floor,

Their presence, ecosystems restore,

Cause and effect, in balance we must tread,

To ensure that all species are not left for dead.

A Mother's Love


A child's smile, a mother's care,

Cause and effect, a love affair,

Nurtured hearts, in time reflect,

Life's greatest joy, we all protect.


Through every stage of life's grand scheme,

Cause and effect, a cherished dream,

In love's embrace, we find our way,

Guiding light, both night and day.


A mother's love, an eternal guide,

In her arms, we safely bide,

Cause and effect, a bond so true,

In her love, we find our cue.

Threads of History


In history's tapestry, threads entwine,

Cause and effect through all of time,

Choices made by those before,

Shape our world, forevermore.


The past's mistakes, our chance to mend,

Cause and effect, a message to send,

Influence the future, make it bright,

Learning from history, in wisdom's light.


The lessons etched in pages old,

In stories of the brave and bold,

Cause and effect, we must remember well,

The past's echo, in our future, dwell.

The Cycle of Destiny


In the grand scheme of things, we see,

Cause and effect, our destiny,

The choices we make, our path we elect,

A never-ending cycle, we must respect.


As time unfolds, the story's told,

Cause and effect, both young and old,

With each new day, a chance to reflect,

On the legacy we leave, the world we protect.


In the tapestry of time, we're but a thread,

Our choices in life, the paths we tread,

Cause and effect, our constant guide,

In this grand journey, we must decide.
