Accolade for my poem, Feather’s Journey

Thank you, administrators,  for the accolade and your hard work.

Feather’s Journey

Spring sprang in spite of the spell
Of frozen winter thawed with a bell
Of flowing flowers whose colors
Display their beauty while nature’s gay borders

Spin into a jeté budding into flowers,
Multitude of shapes, sizes, colors,
Overflowing between leaves leave
The shade above, around flowers to weave

A tapestry of beauty that’ll cleave
Your heart if Marred to be taken apart. Heave
A sigh of relief when gazing on nature’s
Industrious workers, as bird feathers

Highting each spring color to guide
Your attention to protection against the waved
Encroachment of population on rich soil
That’ll never be a foil

For contemplation of the feather
Garnering it power of flight tower
Over the leaves adorning them in beauty
And freedom to see the world fully

Aware that the feather has traveled
On the wind, free, soft, colored
Varied species, nubile in its aerodynamic
Ability to reach the unreachable, as it’s bucolic.

Accolade for my poem,  Swimmer’s Regret

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Swimmer’s Regret

Art has many forms that astound,
Paintings in oils, acrylic,  water colors,
Poetry, imagery, similes, metaphors,
Sculptures of: wood, metal, ice, garbaged

Items repurposed into beauty that dumbfound
The beholder, listener, audience,
Whose aim is to be moved by peace
That’s striking In its presence to abound

In frames Of a sea cradling a swimmer,
Embracing his every stroke with power
To be driven to complete the competition as per
The rules, self-imposed, to strive for better

Health, wealth, status, and self-acceptance
That doing your best to achieve
Your goal is a noble undertaking to live
Without Regret of passed opportunities and brace

For the turbulence of life, mirrored
By nature’s squals, tornadoes, quakes
That compel fear to rise, never breaks
The mold except for those whose faith is grounded.

So the swimmer cuddles through
The cresting waves, never deterred
By the onslaught,  pushes toward
His goal letting life sink into pores that flew

Into the stratosphere, accepting
The warmth of the ocean as it entwines
Life’s struggles with joy that rhymes, like vines,
With belief’s empowering structure of believing.

Accolade for my poem,  Energy

Thank you,  administrators,  for the accolade and your hard work.

Energy

Everything gives off energy,
People give out vibes that are clingy
To their character, soul, and humbly
Vibrate at a frequency that’s seemly.
             Plants, shrubs, and trees are no different.
             Have you stood by vegetation not cement?
             Felt the energy emanating in a vent,
            Reaching out to reduce anxiety onto a splint?
As my tactile senses overtake me,
I feel energy all around me:
People, cars, trees, parks are tame
And engrossed in a game that’s not lame.
     As I touch a living plant, I feel
     Its need to enrobe me in its touch,
     Its simplicity and innocence that fill
     My fingertips with a current that’s a badge
                            Of honor, as not all have the same
                           Level of sensitivity to fall under
                           The wonderment of nature’s thrall, and name
                           Man as its destroyer without any rancor.
             The life force, energy, magnetic field
             Are all one and the same, as each
             Creature emanates a void that embraced
            Its emptiness by acknowledging its existence.

Accolade for my poem, Sky, Soil, God

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Sky, Soil, GOD

As I look above, the sky’s scintillating
Colors, whether sunrise, twighlight, sunset, or night
They inspire moods that vary, like colors devoting
Beauty to your every versatility,  like a kite
In flight, I realize, GOD, is all around
Doling out beauty for joy that’s found

In being beside you when times
Are exciting,  cheerful,  depressing,
When you look down upon ecosystems
Surrounding you with miracles, outstanding
In their simplicity: ant home, beehives,
Even larger predators, the need survives

In each one, human, animal, insect,
Knowing YOU’RE present everywhere
Above, below, and at our side. In fact,
That knowledge is what initiate
Our appreciation for all GOD’S creations,
Innately aware of your presence’s jubilations

That empower all to subjugate
Negativity with optimism, transforming, like sunrise,
Our core into being compassionately humane.

Accolade for my Haiku poem, Harmony

Thank you, administrators,  for the accolade and your hard work.

Harmony

Spring breezes, cooling heat
Springing flowers, leaves, colors
Burgeoning  in life

Strive for harmony
Mingling man, nature, tech in
Cohesive unit

One  begs fortitude
Of the other’s imagined
Wonder of splendor

Accolade for my poem,  Red- Winged Blackbird

Thank you,  administrators,  for the accolade and your hard work.

Red- Winged Blackbird


Walking through High Park in May,
Watching the sun shining, while my heart’s gray,
The birds flit around, soaring, twittering,
Singing their songs of love and grieving

As they reflect spring colors in the Red-
Winged Blackbird, male, whose beautified
The sky with his colorful presence
And song of harmony with nature’s opulence.

He skims on the lake, greeting the loving
Swans, whose necks form a heart holding
On to their peaceful punion. The blackbird
Opens his wings and the red, yellow winged

Flighs back to the cherry blossoms
Whose white, pink, flowers calms
The disheartened souls without a qualm
As it promotes serenity that’s a balm

As their delicate transience
Is a reminder that life flashes with a purpose
Of acquiring wisdom, family, money,
To live a life of harmony like a monkey.

Accolade for my poem,  SYNOPSIS

Acrostic
SYNOPSIS

Sincere secrets severely synced in
Yet another synopsis exposing
New knowledge, information
Offering a summary, brief,
Persisting in greater learning
Simply to ascertain the conclusion
Inspiring imagination’s freedom
Solely for the simplicity of understanding.

Accolade for my poem: Fallen Net

Fallen Net

As twilight lightens into dawn,
Colors slowly seep into the sky and fawn
Over every structure, forest, ocean, mountain,
People fishing to feed their bairn

They throw the net, gracefully,
Casting a shine in the shimmering sky,
A splash as it hits the water,
A slither as it sinks to catch a proper

Marine fare, made ready for market,
With great care, they pull their catch with a picket
That’ll avert great loss of material gain
As their aim is survival in faith without pain

Of depravity of a soul lost
Into succumbing to deviation that cost
Their conscious to weep tears of blood
As it dissipates into the fog without a prod.

So, the simple fishermen score
What they need, send a prayer with a core
Of gratitude for the plentifulness provided
By the sea, faith, and appreciation, never horded,

But revered for the giving hands
Supporting their plight without binding bands.

Accolade for my poem: Speedy Skateboard

Thank you, administrators, for the accolade and your hard work,

Speedy Skateboard

In his jeans, tee, and baseball cap,
He skates around the city freely,
Going down streets, stairs, jumping fearlessly
Over obstacles, people, pets that hop

Through hoops and loops
Trying to survive a world of violence
That imposes the rule of the jungle, a case
For survival of the fittest, fastest pops

That skitter arrogantly on wheels
Of steel and rubber, faithfully turning,
Eating distances without reading,
As books aren’t what he needs to learn, but feels

That he has to engage in conversation
With neighbors, peers, around parks
Streets, compounds of cement peaks
As he streaks past couples, whose compassion

Lend others a hand when needed,
The elderly who need but a smile,
The children needing games that file
The pressure into a pile of garbage, led

By imagination’s growth through
Piously making use of its power
To creatively solve problem, never cower
As they speed through life in a cue.
