My Secret Motivation
(I) Books
If my heart breaks again,
I don't have to worry anymore.
I know how to rise again,
Without visiting the therapist anymore.
Life is tough sometimes.
Why don't you let it stay in the past,
By reading a book sometimes;
From the first page to the last.
Thank you books,
For being my best friend.
Every time I feel down,
They elevate me up.
Books take me to places
Where we stay away from the regular rat race.
Throughout its pages,
With elegance and grace.
(II) Music
My spirit soars with every song,
Opening the doors that I had wanted for a long.
When the music plays, I find my way.
A melody of hope rises all the way.
In every rhythm, a story unfolds.
A feeling rises and the sky upholds.
Thank you music for being my voice;
I express my feelings in my choice.
In the realm of music,
I discovered my fire.
With each note,
It lifts me higher.

The Fairy Dance
Introduction This image made me think of Irish and Welsh mythology, so I have decided on an ekphrastic casbairdne for the form, which, although quite short, is a very difficult form, and this is my first attempt. I did find this very hard, but hopefully I made it work.

The Ritual of Winter Challenge Winners
Welcome to the Winners Announcement for The Ritual of Winter challenge. This prompt focused on winter rituals and the meaning that settles into them over time. The top pieces stay grounded in ordinary acts and repeated routines, letting winter shape the work through pace, attention, and restraint.
