Roots of the Mind
Thoughts destroy a fragile mind
Roots of the Mind
Branches twist, shadows grow,
A tangled forest we barely know.
The weight of thoughts, both dark and deep,
A restless storm that robs our sleep.
Birds of doubt take flight and perch,
Within the soul, they start their search.
For peace, for calm, a steady ground,
In minds where silence is rarely found.
But through the gray, a light breaks through,
A voice that whispers, “You’ll make it too.”
For every tree that sways and bends,
Holds roots of strength that time defends.
fragile thoughts can rip apart
battles fought within the heart.
Together we rise, no shame, no fear,
every mind deserves to be clear.

TUS NUA – ch 53 New Beginnings – Mia and Midnight (*)(*)(*) Finola knew Ali’s brother-in-law needed to put his mind at rest. She fed her arm through his and led him outside. “We’ll sit here. If you like, I can put a block around us so our conversation will be private.”

Love it!
We should all be as sturdy as a tree. Good job.
I love your pictures of trees and birds and struggled minds. Super Work with Words!
I love poems that connect the roots of trees to our mental health. Lovely, just lovely!
