Do it daily
Do it whenever
#partake in yourself
It will #surpass all your expectations
Be open
Receive
You will see
You will know

Never thought I would surpass
the age of twenty seven—
the age that all my heroes died
and made their way beyond.
I'm older now than those that left.
Maybe I have more to do,
make some music of my own, perhaps.
But I won't rush the song.

One of the things I'm good at! Life sculpture. This piece is titled 'Ta-dah' by Isobel Starling. Bronze, brass, marble.
Feminism told us we could have it all
#Surpass societies boundaries
Stand tall
Having it all was never for me
No energy for a relationship, career, kids,
household chores & making tea
Nah, some of us aren't supposed to have it all
I still stand tall
Focusing on the things I'm good at!

Crash Landing
On the surface
you could argue
that I have surpassed
expectations
just by being here
But if the bar
is not being dead
then I could argue
that you need to adjust
your expectations

Love not Luck
It’s St Patrick’s Day
I #assure you it’s true
But at the end of the rainbow
There’s no gold for you
But there is the love
& joy you project
Which are the best ways
For us to protect
Our hearts & minds
From breaking like glass
& for the goals we set
For us to #surpass

My eyes
are open
expectant
enjoying
their last
faulty freedom
for soon
glass will come
to sharpen
my focus
to aid my
reading
and my vision
will #surpass
that of the
last two years
my wallet is open
for I have paid
a princely sum
for twenty-twenty
vision
to super power
the doom scroll
I have injured
my
right shoulder
hoping
to #surpass
my personal dip
record
a few days ago
now
I have a constant
ache
in my left arm
so I've eased
off
exercise
for now
I also found
an acupressure point
in my hand
which helps
in the webbing
between the thumb
and forefinger
amazing

My daughter lives in Ireland, and I wish on St Patrick's Day that I was there on a visit. We'd go to Frank's Bar in Enniskillen to #partake of the #blackstuff - nothing can #surpass the flavour in #Ireland.
"You #surpass my expectations, child."
"But?"
"But this new universe of yours is flawed, too. Try again."

The sheer strength of the morning coffee was enough to surpass all my expectations.
The first sip of coffee left me fully awakened.

This image shows a wooden bookshelf holding a collection of nineteen vintage books. The shelf is labeled with a small, brass-colored plaque that reads "Classics" in an italicized font. The books are arranged side-by-side, showing their spines, which vary in height, thickness, and color—mostly muted tones of red, blue, green, cream, and tan. Many of the books appear to be early-to-mid 20th-century editions, some with decorative illustrations or weathered dust jackets. Key Sections of the Shelf Left Side (The Larger Volumes): Two thick, matching red hardcover volumes of "The Henry Irving Shakespeare" stand on the far left. Next to them are several books by Beverley Nichols, including "Laughter on the Stairs" and "All I Could Never Be". Center (Illustrated and Noted Authors): "Rudyard Kipling: Stalky & Co." features an illustration of a man in academic robes. Conan Doyle: A tan book titled "Historical Romances" shows a black-and-white portrait of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Jane Austen: A white Penguin paperback of "Mansfield Park" stands out among the older hardcovers. Right Side (Classic Literature): The far right features several works by Sir Walter Scott, including "Kenilworth", "The Heart of Mid-Lothian", "The Talisman", and "Rob Roy". These are thinner volumes with decorative gold lettering on the spines. Visual Details The books show signs of age, such as frayed edges on the dust jackets, faded colors, and some tearing on the Conan Doyle volume. The shelf itself is made of a warm-toned, polished wood with a visible grain.
My father seemed disappointed
I didn't pursue riches or fame
choosing instead to #surpass his oafish ways.
The arts and letters were my calling
through pursuit of truths in various guises
tomes and tales written throughout the ages
heroes, tragedy, passions and comedic jest.
I fared me well.

world burns
eyes roll
people pretending
the stench of decay
smells of roses
one last hurrah
of escapism
to #surpass
reality
and forget what will
eventually come
for us all
happy trails

The Martian #south pole expedition was supposed to #surpass all others. But it was not the androids that got into a #flap when the cold took its toll and supplies ran out. After #executing his companions, Drake turned to the androids, ordering one to finish him.

There was a lady who lived near the pass
Who sold strawberries while sat on the grass
Quite a few pickers
Tried to get in her knickers
It was a challenge they couldn't surpass
#vss365 #surpass #Limerick #WritingCommunity
Surpass my ass
Only shadows prove the power of the sun
Only the sun hides its
coldest corners
To believe is to lose
To doubt is to grow strong
The idea of self is destructive
The goal of today is to repeat what worked yesterday, tomorrow
Nothing more nothing less
#surpass #vss365
we can't all
eclipse others
in greatness
some of us
were born to be
surpassed
#vss365 #surpass #poetry #writing
#surpass obstacles
triumph over
every roadblock
pass by
every competitor
at the end
of the summit
look back on
your journey
and feel proud
that you've done it.

I pretend it's Rachmaninoff's third, but a few cacophonic chords into Three Blind Mice, it's evident that my ambitions surpass my abilities.

Wiping my nose
On an odd sock
I surpass all my Fathers hopes
And my Mothers expectations

She turned away to hide the grin. Her two-year-old’s capacity for drama surpassed Hollywood’s best. A performance worthy of an Oscar, yet there would still be no Peppa Pig DVD before bedtime.
one festive day
in morning mist
a lone abbey arch
channels historic
St Patrick
faith
may #surpass Irish legend
yet legends
cross generations and
keep faith alive

There’s never one
There’s s always been two
And they are not called
Twit and Twoo
Beautiful,
As Owl watch his brothers
Surpass Conway castle walls
Together, Soaring in blood
Owl is a brother,
But they are twin hawks.
