Chapter
VERSE: Two Worlds
Two Worlds begins by immersing the reader in a vision of creation unspoiled—a realm where everything sings in harmony with the divine. God’s world, as depicted, pulses with beauty that transcends form: light glides over valleys, stars dance in ordered rhythm, and every breeze carries the tone of affection. There, strength is not harsh but gentle, and beauty is not vain but noble, shaped by the balance only divine intention can bestow. Light, more than mere illumination, becomes a tender garment draped…-

Chapter
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. The image—a sorrowful nun with downcast eyes—serves not just as a symbol of piety, but as the gateway to a narrative set in the sun-kissed fields of southern France. The convent known as Our Lady of the Hawthorns stood like a sanctuary of compassion, offering care to the sick, peace to the weary, and a home to many who had nowhere else to turn. Within its tranquil walls lived…-

VERSE: Beyond
Beyond opens with a deliberate stripping away of the world’s temporary crowns—pride, status, intellect, wealth, and control. These may dazzle while we walk the earth, but their light fades swiftly in the presence of eternity. The poem does not rage against these constructs but gently reveals their inability to survive in the atmosphere of Heaven. There, nothing hollow can endure. Earthly accomplishments, impressive though they seem, are shadows when compared to the enduring flame of true love. It is…-

Chapter
VERSE: Optimus
Optimus opens with a caution that speaks directly to the well-meaning heart—the kind of person stirred by the sight of undone work, by silence when action is needed, and by the weight of tasks that seem to have been abandoned. A voice, noble in tone but dangerous in intent, whispers that it is right to step in and take on what others have left behind. It presents itself as a call to heroism, dressed in selflessness, yet it carries within it the seed of imbalance. The poem reveals this temptation as…-

Chapter
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. Sir Arthur, though dignified and affectionate, carries a solemn weight since the death of his wife. Her absence lingers in the house like a shadow that dims even the happiest days. Each night, the children gaze at her portrait, not as a habit, but as a ritual that binds them to the past. Her voice echoes in the walls, her influence woven into every custom they refuse to let go.…-

Chapter
VERSE: My Will
My Will begins not with possessions, but with presence—the kind of presence that lingers even after parting. The speaker, without land or riches to leave behind, chooses instead to pass on pieces of their spirit. These are not grand inheritances of gold, but memories, encouragement, and affection sculpted by time and care. Each recipient is offered something deeply personal: a name carried with tenderness, a task that echoes shared conviction, or a love untouched by bitterness. These gifts are quiet, yet…-

VERSE: The Carver’s Lesson
The Carver’s Lesson speaks to those who create not with their hands alone, but with their hearts and convictions woven into every detail. The speaker urges that skill, while essential, is not the highest virtue of art. What truly matters is the message that breathes quietly through each carved form—a whisper of peace, kindness, or truth hidden in wood or stone. A carved rose should carry more than beauty; it should soften a heart or inspire a thought. This lesson isn’t just for sculptors—it’s for…-

Chapter
VERSE: Philip and Mildred
Philip and Mildred opens in a moment marked not by celebration, but by sorrow cloaked in tenderness. In the hush of early evening, the two lovers walk slowly through a valley that once echoed with the laughter of their shared dreams. This was to be their wedding day, yet instead of vows before family, they exchange promises beneath a darkening sky. Philip, drawn away by recognition he never sought but cannot refuse, leaves not for glory but for purpose. Mildred, though aching with loss, urges him forward,…-
