Certificate of Excellence for my poem,  Shadow of Mine

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Shadow of Mine

Shadow, oh shadow of mine,
I can only see you not feel you,
What are you made of? Do you
Touch me, unbeknownst to me and mine?

Of darkened shadow of mine,
Shine your darkness into the key
That lingers on my soul, never flee
Leaving me alone, you’re fine

Oh shadow of mine,
Steer my journey into light,
Caress my courage, keeping it bright,
Carry my darkness and embue a line

Of shadow’s tendrils to cry: ‘mine’,
For its loud whispers hover blindly
Over me, protecting my soul kindly,
So shadow, heal me and mine.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem,  INQUILAB

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

INQUILAB

Illiteracy is obliterated by learning
Never stopping from acquiring knew knowledge in a
Quest for improvement through Inquilab
Understanding that the pen’s power strives to
Implement change through a mindset of
Liberating rebellion against oppression’s hold
Amassing a following, generating strength
Building unity that overpowers the oppressor.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, What If?

What an honor!

What If …

What if war was a warm wreathe
Filled with colors that please?

What if snow’s icy feel was velvety
Warm and inspires healing coldly?

What if humanity hummed a hymn
Filled with hope, harmony haunting grim?

What if there is only acceptance,
Understanding, friendship, peace?

What if your entourage were supportive
And fulfilled its quotient of depression’s curative?

What if the sky and seas became
One, melding colors, baking but grim?

What if the mountains and valleys
Came together in a crash of ash and clays?

What if the living and dead walk
The earth together,  what will they about talk?

What if you’re born an adult, regress
Into babyhood, then die as a baby’s bless?

What if black were white, and white
Were black, how would dichotomy be a plight?

What if time leapt back to lack technology,
Would humanity still have posterity?

Certificate of Excellence for my acrostic poem, DELUSION

DELUSION

Deadly deceivers revel in delusions of self
Empowerment whose grandeur
Leaves the other feeling lesser
Undeniably their power springs from
Saturating the media with a narrative
Inculcating their goals of superiority,
Only, they actually strip themselves of honesty
Never favoring justice or equality, Deadly delusion.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem,  Oh Love …

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Theme: #PhraseOfLove
Oh Love ….

Oh love, your mere existence is never
Forgotten, once it is, then all is lost.
For love makes the world run in a fever
Of passion that plagues the heart, a post
For all to share its importance that not gross
Rather it gives calm, peace that’s always boss.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem,  Who Are We?

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Who Are We?

How do you conceal who you are?
How many facets do you portray?
Do you change the way you dress daily?
Do you alter your hair and eye color?
Do you vary your tone, whisper, cry, or shout?
Do you add make up to accent different parts of you?
Are you an award winning actor playing a role?

Which part of you are most protective of?
The real you or the ones you show off?
I’ve said before, but I will say it again:
The crux of who you are is hidden for few to view
And bask in your cheer, hope and self-esteem.

Of all the masks you’ve worn over time,
Which do you want to be ‘you’?
Is your identity a bricolage of family, friends, colleague,
Ethnicity, race, religion,  and cultural ‘norms’?
What happens to the mask when the identity shatters?
Do you also fall apart,  lose control,  and spin like a top,
Unknowing what your next mask will represent?

It seems to me, after much consideration,  experience
That who you are is reflected in your eyes,
Where your soul reaches out to impose its wisdoms,
In order for self satisfaction and acceptance to
Coexist in harmony with your favorite mask!

Certificate of Excellence for my acrostic poem,  PEACEFUL

Thank you for the honor and your hard work

PEACEFUL

Perfect purity is putty, muddy
Endlessly being turned into war
Anchoring evil doers in thrones of power
Carnivorous in their cruelty, heinous
Evil activity that needs to be repudiated
Far into a cave to emprison them so the
Umbrella of peaceful camaraderie that
Lent humanity a community of unity.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, Foundation of Love

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Foundation of Love

What comes out of love?
From love, all creation is born, as you rove
On this earth in search for more, from cove

To plain, to desert, to mountain top
You run in search for its root, and hop
To its tune, rhythm, rhyme to feed the soul that sop

Of identity, compassion, humanity,
That intermingle, intertwine, two souls of purity
Bound together to infinity.

Not as possession, not a claim, rather
Emotions that run the gamut from fear,
Pain, disillusionment, cheer, joy, all clear

As they mend the broken parts of each
Font of pleasure that surmount the bunch
Of negativity that oppresses like a crunch

Yet, love, its golden halo of purity
Engulfs the two in a hug transcending timely
Obstacles, turning them into change powerfully

Entwining lives into a single soul
Whose only goal
Is addressing the plunder of love’s bowl.

Certificate of Excellence for my acrostic poem,  AUSTERITY

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Acrostic
AUSTERITY
Assuaging your desires at the expense of
Ubiquitous has become the norm, when
Stressing the need for discipline, restraint,
Temperateness, are all thrown out as they
Engulfs you in disdain of those whose lack of
Restraint will unfortunately lead to
Infinite complications in life that would
Testify that a bit of abstinence would
Yield a life fuller, complete with family, unity, humanity.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, Pose?

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Pose?

To pose or not to pose?
That’s the question on this day of non-repose.
She stands, elegant,  regal,
Smiling into his chocolaty eyes, fall,
Falling into his soothing pool of love.

The depth of emotions that hiss
And run deeper than any abyss,
This moment in time will never come
Back again, for its novelty’ll dim
But never die in the pyre of time,

It’ll grow and flow into their
Joint lives of adoration as their
Tears of joy and sadness blend
Into sysmic waves that thrashed
Many a couple, but Not them!


Time will try to siphon their
Joint time into darkness,  but their care
Will stomp on time’s vain
Attempt to suck out the rain
Turning it into a melodic refrain.
