She Might Burn: A Poem About Resilience

She Might Burn

They say she is fragile,

But she is rather agile.

.

You called her crazy,

But maybe it’s just you who are lazy?

… and even if she is crazy,

She is a daisy.

.

She is gentle,

You’re judgmental.

.

If her light shines too bright,

Catch a flight.

.

If her warming hands burn,

You are free to return.

However, you have to learn.

.

What you called fragile,

Is indeed highly vagile.

.

She has learned,

After she got burned,

To be unconcerned.

.

She is a daisy,

Maybe a bit crazy,

But never lazy.

.

A daisy symbolises innocence and fun,

But is not for everyone.

.

She stretches towards the sun,

Just for fun.

.

Her light shines bright,

She is daylight.

.

She has been called a sun,

But you pointed the gun.

So, if she is to burn, It was your decision to the point of no return.

Chess: Life’s Agile Strategy and Playful Take

Chess

Life is like a game of chess,

A strategy is good to have, – but agile must be the way,

You’ll do better with a plan, and think a few steps ahead.

Like in the game of chess, much can happen in just one play.

.

Which strategy do you choose?

I assume you don’t play to lose.

Are you willing to take risks and go for it all, sacrifice needed pieces, like the queen of them all?

Or do you play in defense, protecting and responding to each call?

Are you either, or?

Maybe something in-between?

Or neither of them all?

Do you change your strategy for sure?

And would that really be a good call?

….

Like in a game of chess,

Life is full of stress.

Pressure and difficult choices to take,

Do you stand by your strategy or do you break?

Is it a mistake, or an agile take?
