Certificate of Excellence for my poem: Fiery Fall

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

Fiery Fall

Colors of fiery fall feed your
Feelings of fierce freedom
Flowing with the blowing,
Air around all aflurry,
In its need to breathe in
The sweetest air keeping you alive.

I let the fleeting breeze
Run up my sleeve, it
Sneaks up my armpit,
As easily as you please,
Surges through me, lifting,
Roaming around, finding pause
To circle, freely, around my breast,
Neck, and head. Stealth is best,
As I fly where the wind will rest.

As the sweeping air embraces
Me with its wonders,
I steal a peek, and my heart stutters,
At the fire leaping from the leaves,
Whose colors turn from yellow,
Burnished greens, rust, blood red,
Burgundy, all flit around my head
Leaping from tree top
To tree top, to bush, to flower,
To weed, to soil, nourishing
All with its slow hover
That steals your breath in awe
At the splendor of the fleeting fall critter.

Bronze Certificate of Achievement,  poem: Nature’s Rejuvenation

I’d like to thank the administrators for the honor they’ve bestowed on my poetry.

Nature’s Rejuvenation

The wonder of the sea as it cleanses
Itself with waves frothed in peaks
Of brilliant white, flagging the onlookers

To note its brilliance as it hits the shore
With great abundance of fish, sea urchins’ core,
Crustaceans who never bore,

All vie to survive in an ecosystem
Whose balance is fragile but come
Forward to purify an environment is lame

As it’s bombarded in garbage,
Toxins that destroy the balance, in an age
Where every resource and commodity rage

For its preservation for survival
Of humanity is vital,
But, Man’s corporal life hung in destruction of the mystical.

Vacay: Tripoli, Lebanon

At the old Souk and old port where the architecture reflects the Lebanese history. The city is called, Tripoli, due to the 3 doors of entry to the city. The old ports history is filled with different civilizations, archeological artifacts, buildings that represent the marriage of cultures, and blending of religions into a united people.

There are three Souks: gold, clothing, and copper that showcase the melding of history and modernity. Their beauty lies in their preservation and continued upkeep.

Gold Certificate of Poetic Excellence: Satan’s Bride

Satan’s Bride

The bride of Satan, dressed in white lace,
Covered neck, arms, wrist, and breast,
But her ‘come hither’ looks abound on her face,
Where her Blue sultry eyes twinkle and rest

On her next victim, whose naivety
Dumps them on a crest of eternal
Damnation, as she pouts her way
Into susceptible hearts that are flug into a stall

Of manure adored rest filled with the plague
Of depression’s harbor, as she seduces
Without rest, all those having an affinity to renege
On a contract, signed in blood, that produces

Regret of lost souls, pride, arrogance
As they imbibe of her nectar, and believe
Her spiel sermon of drivel, convince
Victims with her extraordinary beauty to leave

Them panting, unthinking, as they sign
On the dotted line unthinking of their living line.

Award of Appreciation

“In your light I learn how to love.
In your beauty, how to make poems.” (Rumi)


Love’s Poetry

As light is hope and all that’s bright,
Learning to love in the sun illuminates
Your perception on values, character, that fight
To blot out negativity, that’s darkened puss

That festers as an abyssimal blight
To optimism whose courage roars in
Flight to piece together poems whose bite
Is only a loving caress, as their images pin

Your beauty from words to face, wrinkled
From endured hardships but glows
With the passionate compassion of being loved.
As you shower me with light, the fight throws

Away the scourge of love’s broken heart
By filling papers with poems that brook
No argument to its plight in trying to strut
The words in verses and lines that cook

Your presence into the essence of love
Unbroken by a pessimistic world that implodes
When amour is at its best fighting in brave
Behest of a soul needing rest in paper adobes.

Double Diamon Certificate: Faery Wonderland

Faery  Wonderland

In a faery wonderland, she’ll stand,
Hands held together in veneration for land
Whose fantastical beauty astounds,
Its colors: rainbowed pastels in grands

Accumulated in clicks of reds, blue,
Pinks, greens, whose hues flew
Across the bay, scattered haphazardly
In a motley crew of geometrically

Arranged order that’s breathtaking
In their form, as they stand as sentries breaking
….


A story of struggle that united
The varied creatures to be one,
As they strive to keep their beauty in a shrine.

Love / Hate

How do you feel about cold weather?

I love cold weather on the condition that the heating system isn’t on too high that I sweat everywhere I go. I also love the white winter scenery when snow covers the ground in a white coat of innocence.  However,  I also hate how dirty a house becomes from melting snow, salt, slush, and mud.

Certificate of Achievement,  May’s Spring

My poem received the above certificate of achievement.

May’s Spring

My eyes are always turned to the sky,
Where beauty and simplicity vie
For supremacy in an empty spacy.

Birds of all kinds fly by, flocking,  migrating,
Setting new habits for their chicks’ living
Quarters that are overflowing with forests, changing
With each new flock that’s arriving.
Live honoring nature’s power,
Its giving nature that is a bower
Of safety when you need a lover
Without motives, who is only a supporter.

Embrace your brethren in humanity,
Their races receding into the vicinity
Of acceptance,  that all Man is emotionally
And physically the same, all have red blood.

Feelings, passions, and red flowing blood
Saunter into each’s body in a flood
Of confusion that needs sorting and bud,
Swamping everyone with a unique personage.

Burgeon into your character,
Let your wings flutter,
Soar like a flower petal as the breezer
Tries to alter your course, but you are its conqueror.
