    Congratulations by Walking Shadow Poetry.

    You’ve reached the peak after a long climb,Every step marked by sweat, tears, and time,The road behind you was steep and tough,But you held on when the journey got rough. There were moments when doubt clouded your mind,When the path ahead seemed too hard to find,But you dug deep, found strength in your soul,Kept moving…

    Underground by Walking Shadow Poetry.

    You are a seed,Planted deep in the soil,Not buried, but held close by the earth,Cradled in the warmth of darkness,Where it may seem like all is lost,But remember, this is just the beginning. The weight above you may feel like too much,The silence may echo too loud in your heart,And the cold may seep into…

    Planted, Not Buried

    You are a seed, my friend,Planted deep in the earth, not buried,For there’s a difference, you see,Burial is the end, but planting is just the beginning. They pressed you down into the soil,Covered you with the weight of the world,Hoping to see you fade away,But they didn’t know you’re not meant to stay. In the…

    Another Year, Another Step by walking shadow poetry Kenya.

    Today, I turn a year older,And I feel a mix of warm and colder.I’m proud of all I’ve done so far,But the future feels like a distant star. I’ve faced hard days and sleepless nights,But I’ve kept going, fought the fights.I’ve climbed hills, crossed some streams,Held onto hope, chased my dreams. Yet now, as I…

    “I see things Differently Now” by walking shadow poetry.

    I used to think you didn’t care,That your world was too much to bear.I watched you struggle, felt so apart,Judged you harshly, broke your heart. I didn’t see the endless nights,The way you fought your private fights.The tears you shed when no one knew,The silent strength you always drew. Now, with a child in my…

    A Mother’s Realization Poem.

    I used to think you didn’t care,That your struggles were too much to bear.I saw your pain, but turned away,Judged you harshly, day by day. I didn’t see the sleepless nights,Or how you fought your silent fights.I missed the way you’d sacrifice,And how your love came at a price. Now with a child in my…
