VERSE: A New Mother
A New Mother opens within the quiet strain of a family still grieving, where love is present, but fragmented by memory and loss.

VERSE: A Letter
A Letter begins with the quiet longing of someone who attempts to translate overwhelming love into lines on a page. The speaker sits with pen in hand, imagining the exact words that might reflect the shape of their heart. Each sentence is crafted with care, but none feel quite complete.

VERSE: A Legend of Provence
A Legend of Provence begins in a quiet moment of reflection, where a simple portrait stirs a deep story of loss and redemption.

Within its tranquil walls lived…-

Each object carries the weight of memory, not merely sentimental, but transformative in what they once meant and what they now represent. The portrait is especially significant,…-

Sixteen Chinese bearers walk in unison, each carrying a coffin meant not for sixteen, but for one man. Among them, one coffin once served as a dining table, adding a note of dry humor to the otherwise solemn occasion. Their cargo is a small figure in stature but immense in legacy. The atmosphere is…-

The Hammers
In this chapter titled The Hammers, the opening scene offers a quiet juxtaposition—an English estate slowly overtaken by time, where roses bloom beside crumbling walls and silence speaks louder than memory. The stillness is not merely rural peace but a kind of hush before the resurgence of national effort. Soon, that quiet is broken by rhythmic pounding—metal on metal, the sound of labor shaping destiny. In Frindsbury, 1786, the shipyards stir with the energy of creation as hammers rise and fall in…-
