In the rush of days, unyielding, fast,
Our minds like ships, by gusty winds are cast.
Amidst the din of life’s relentless ring,

Away from noise, in stillness, we seek

An Inspired Poem: Divergent Minds, Convergent Hearts
In the realm where thoughts like rivers flow,
Diverse in course, yet destined to bestow
A confluence where minds, though worlds apart,
Find unity in the language of the heart.
Divergent minds, like stars in endless skies,
Each shining with its own hue, its own guise.
Yet in the vastness of this human sea,
A hidden thread binds us in unity.
