Certificate of Appreciation for my poem: My Love

My Love

If “Love opens the most impossible gates;” and
“Love is the gate to all the secrets of the universe.”
Then, love is all powerful, eternal, rebellious, never bland,
But compassionate promise In a universe

Filled with dissent, competition, a love of money,
And sin. I give thanks that my love, husband,
Is my rock, my motivator, and one key
To my writing that’s unwavering and always holds my hand.

My love is there for the difficult decisions,
Guidance and friend to our children,
Has sleepless nights when they’re in positions
Of upheaval that require strategic precision.

For me, he is my star in a dark night,
The shoulder I cry into when life’s unbearable
Losses enrobe my heart in darkness, as he helps me fight
The devouring abyss making it acceptable.

Certificate of Appreciation for my poem: Feast’s Unity

Feast’s Unity

Crave the jubilation of feasting!
Every religious ceremony that binds
lonely souls into a community

but, all enemity is set aside when celebrating the
revival of humanity’s compassionate understanding.

target and transforms aggression
into love, friendship, jubilation,
owning that positivity, propagating it, and
never letting pessimism or negativity

And only those ungenerous with their humanity
forgo gatherings that uplift the soul.

overgrown children’s merriment
Yields a time filled with astounding wonder.

New year, new Certificate of Appreciation, for my acrostic poem: SECULARISM

Thank you, administrators,  for the honor and your hard work you helped start my year on the right footing!

SECULARISM

Severing the connection between religion’s
Endavor to dictate the rules for society has
Cut believers from implementing parts of their
Undeniable ties to GOD, as within them there’s a
Lawful balance between social, self, career,
And world that defines rights of each on a
Reality that is holistic and all encompassing,
Intensifying the need to think beyond the
Self, its needs, and elevate the needs of the
Many through rules that satisfy the many.

Certificate of Appreciation for my poem,  Birth of Jesus

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

Birth of Jesus

Mary had her contractions,
Under the palm tree’s shade
Where she wished for death’s havens
To take away her struggles.
She hears a voice, deep, as though
Coming from beneath
Telling her not to worry, her breath
Will give birth
To a prophet, Issa, Jesus,
Whose conception, miraculous,
Was thought adulterous,
But, he, Issa, spoke
A suckling babe,
Another miracle,
Telling believers to believe
In GOD and His word,
Bible, Quoran, Tora, to change the world
Into one that’s compassionate,
Forgiving, loving, giving, never late
In listening, understanding that fate
Is for the living to ensure
That it’s done through His
Teachings, forsaking sins
That blacken the soul, hearts
That need light to shine bright.

Certificate of Appreciation for my poem in 

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

What makes a relationship succeed?
It takes four things: Listening and
Understanding the other’s feelings,
Patience for processing and communicating
Your logic, thinking process
And compromise on both sides.

Certificate of Appreciation for my poem

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

Deafening Silence

The scariest sound is that of a silenced time
In nature, while you’re in the midst
Of a storm, the eye is ‘calm before the storm’


To the strident cacophony of howling winds that feast


Although the event’s transient accoutrements
Leave a world in chaos as it dissipates over land.
The wreckage of homes and possessions aren’t contents

….

Lives scattered into the sands of time as they bust
Through their raucous imprisonment with cheer
And optimism that has no end but in a bright burst.

Let your home be centered around you,
Making it transportable and new, as you
Enjoy its flimsy, distraught center in a cue.

Award of Appreciation for my poem: ‘I’s’ Peace

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

‘I’s’ Peace

The consumer world imposes a selfishness
That demands more and more, for
Vanity, rank, and the ego to try to conquer
Its ability to be humane and selfless

By letting the mind sway away
From deifying the self above the rest,
But what’s best is only a test
For the will to overlook the internal grey

That requires feeding one’s conceit
When the reality is that one needs
To look beyond the self that bleeds
Darkness of egotism when the receipt

Of the needs of the world, giving
From oneself to help perceive
That the wonders of the creator leave
Peace within, as one is striving for heaven living.
