bees – Poetry for Change

Award of Appreciation for my poem, Existing Isn’t Living

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Existing Isn’t Living

‘I exist, therefore I am’
Doesn’t mean you’re alive,
Rather it means you exist in time
Without breaking the trend, a hive

Of bees are alive, having
One aim: either securing pollen,
Or making honey, or the queen, all striving
To make life bearable, never fallen

For each has a purpose, design
That pushes their ambition,
So, like the bee, we must be, a fine
Line not to be crossed, for noble characterization.

Certificate of Achievement for my poem, Silence’s Curator

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Silence’s Curator

The green sprouts standing like sentinels
Protecting the beauty of nature’s quiet
Harmony that pulls its nutrient
Silently from the earth to nourish the bells

Of flowers dangling haphazardly
On long stems, sending their scent
Into the air attracting bees, birds, that lent
Their efforts to pollinate nature’s beautifully

Synced ecosystem in a paltry effort
To beautify more fully a world
Needing its slow pace to reflect, to write a word
On the journey of life’s ups, downs, twist

That have you spinning in place
Like a top without a head ruling
Its grace with patience of flowing
Oceans whose quiet but all elegance.
