Tomorrow is a steady beacon,
guiding us with promise and hope.
With every dawn, we begin a journey
whether we walk, gallop, or lope.
The shadow of doubt seldom lingers
in a heart teeming with dreams.
Each step taken is a victory,
no matter how difficult or pointless it seems.
Fear is an unwelcome companion
on the road traveled by the brave and the true.
The light always outshines the darkness
revealing each day a new world bright and new.

Revealing each day a new world bright and new,
the light always outshines the darkness.
On the road traveled by the brave and the true,
fear is an unwelcome companion.
No matter how difficult or pointless it seems,
each step taken is a victory.
In a heart teeming with dreams,
the shadow of doubt seldom lingers.
Whether we walk, gallop, or lope,
with every dawn, we begin a journey.
Guiding us with promise and hope,
tomorrow is a steady beacon.

THE PULSE OF AUTHORITY.
I. In the quiet corridors where decisions echo, Authority breathes, a pulse unseen, A rhythm of command and consequence, Measured in the weight of words, In the tilt of a head, the gaze held firm. It resides in the hush of anticipation, In the flicker of screens and the shuffle of papers, In the stillness that precedes the storm.

I like how the poem reflects the long journey we see ahead of us in the picture, but also shows the positive mindset we need to keep going no matter what. “In a heart teeming with dreams, the shadow of doubt seldom lingers.” is a wonderful piece of imagery. Nicely done😊
Nice! You did it and I loved that you included the reverse version. Much easier to read and experience! Well done!
