'This Ain't Some Cheesy Hallmark Flick' was another December Poetry Prompt from #kadsandcollectiveprompts on Instagram that didn't place. I always found Christmas to be the most hypocritical time of the year, and the Hallmark flicks rub more salt in that wound.

november felt heavy in ways i wasn’t prepared for… but it also taught me the things i kept avoiding — the truths i needed to face, the softness i kept delaying.

and now, with december here, i’m choosing gentler days… and a gentler version of me. ☕✨

'December Dreaming' was a submission to #kadsandcollectiveprompts December Poetry Prompts on Instagram. Unfortunately, it didn't place, but I got some good feedback on this response to this interpretation to Hans Christian Anderson's 'The Little Match Girl'.

december feels different this year —
not loud, not overwhelming,
just quietly asking me to try again.

i’m not expecting magic…
just softer days, slower breath,
and a version of me that doesn’t feel so tired anymore. 🌙☕✨

WINTER’S QUIET RECKONING

December feels snowed-in this year — frost on the glass, sorrow in the stockings, and a midnight hush that sings its own quiet carol. Even darkness glows if you stay long enough to see it.
