The Choice of Compassion is a collection of poems born from my deepest conviction that poetry is a divine language - one that can touch hearts, awaken empathy, and remind humanity that there are still souls on Earth whose hearts are vast enough to feel compassion for both those who are like them and those who are not. Each poem flows from a heart devoted to true love, wisdom, and truth - a humanitarian spirit intertwined with both joy and sorrow. In many of my verses, I remember and honor my Lord, Saviour, and Messiah, Jesus Christ, for He is the source of my strength, my peace, and my everything. Through these humble but powerful poems, I hope to sow seeds of kindness, to nurture forgiveness where pain has taken root, and to reveal that the choice of compassion is not only an act of unconditional love - it is the sacred path toward a more merciful and peaceful world. If my poems touch your heart, I pray you will share them with your friends, your family, and with those who are in need of them. May God bless you all abundantly. You are all in my heart and daily prayers.

He didn't just choose her. He recognized her, not for what she pretended to be, but for what she already was. This story wasn't about beauty as the world defines it. It was about what remains when the noise fades. Dignity, sincerity, grace that doesn't seek attention, but commands respect.

Once, the kingdom of Lyrien stood as a beacon of beauty, power, and peace-until war reduced it to ash and scattered its royal daughters into lives they never chose. Amara, the eldest, is sold into servitude to a bitter, broken scholar whose cruelty mirrors the ruins of their lost home. Yet in the quiet suffering of her days, she discovers an unexpected strength-the power of gratitude. Where others see despair, Amara learns to find purpose, slowly transforming not only her own heart, but the life of the man who enslaved her. Selene, the second sister, is cast into the shadows of a brothel, where survival demands the surrender of dignity. But she refuses to let her spirit be defiled. With unwavering conviction, she walks a fragile line-navigating danger, temptation, and judgment-while protecting the one thing no one can take from her without consent: her soul. In a place where hope is scarce, she becomes a quiet light for others who have forgotten their worth. Lyra, the youngest, escapes her fate but loses everything else. Forced to abandon her identity as a princess, she reinvents herself as a thief-swift, cunning, and unseen. Yet even in the darkness, her heart remains unchanged. She steals not for greed, but for survival-and eventually, for compassion-becoming a guardian to the forgotten: refugees, orphans, the wounded, and the poor. Separated by tragedy yet bound by blood, the three sisters walk vastly different paths shaped by suffering, resilience, and purpose. Though their crowns are gone, each must decide what it truly means to live with honor in a broken world. Three Daughters of a Fallen Crown is a powerful tale of loss and redemption, where gratitude blooms in hardship, purity endures in corruption, and kindness rises from the shadows-proving that even when a kingdom falls, its legacy can live on in the hearts of those who refuse to be broken. Note: This is only a short story. You are warned.

Plot Summary: In the sweltering heat of a New Orleans summer, a 14-year-old boy tends to a rooftop full of pigeons and doves. Everyone assumes he's Haitian, but his roots trace back to Trinidad. Perched high above the streets of Hollygrove, his birds are more than pets-they're lookouts. When police cruisers circle or a raid is near, he releases them, their sudden flight a silent warning to the drug dealers below. The boy is a master of side hustles. When fishing boats dock short-handed, he earns a spot on deck. He moves through a bootlegger's warehouse stacked with counterfeit purses, CDs, and umbrellas, selling goods to tourists for cash. Despite his grind, he still attends school during the year, reading voraciously and filling journals with observations and ideas. Popular yet private, he keeps his life's harshest truths guarded. His mother is lost to addiction, missing for months. His father is serving time for killing a police officer. Alone and under the radar, he avoids the state authorities who've been searching to place him in foster care. A neighbor offers him shelter in a backyard shed, and from there, he learns to survive-adapting quickly, thinking faster than the streets can swallow him. New Orleans is dangerous, but he moves through it with quiet intelligence, earning respect without inviting trouble. He witnesses the city's beauty and brutality in equal measure, growing sharper with every test it throws at him. Through determination, wit, and relentless self-education, he makes it through his teenage years-not just surviving but excelling. By the time he graduates, he is class valedictorian, leaving Hollygrove behind for Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island-a journey from pigeons on the rooftop to Ivy League halls, without ever losing the lessons of the streets that raised him.
