Certificate of Excellence for my acrostic poem, WHISPER

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Acrostic
WHISPER

Whistling whispers that
Have a holding effect on hearts
Imploding with impossible passions
Subliminal susurations sizzling in
Promises provoquing powerful feeling
Embedded in empires of whispered words
Replying to curiosity currently conversing quietly.

Certificate of Excellence, 1rst place, for my poem, Starlight

Thank you for the honor and your hard work. A review of the poem by Erica


The poem “Starlight” by Malak Kalmoni Chehab fits perfectly with the theme “Cosmic Musings”! The poem beautifully explores the symbolism of starlight, using it as a metaphor for hope, optimism, and confidence.

There are 12 lines in the poem. Well done, Malak Kalmoni Chehab!

Some potential strengths of the poem include:

1. *Imagery*: The use of vivid descriptions like “bright living stars,” “shimmering wonder,” and “shooting star” effectively evokes the celestial theme.
2. *Emotional resonance*: The poem explores the emotional impact of starlight, conveying a sense of hope and optimism.

The poem’s message about finding confidence and strength in the symbolism of starlight is inspiring.

Congratulations 👏

Starlight

The darkened night sky is populated
By bright living stars that brightened
All our nightmares, giving us the radiance
That bundles us in a cocoon of confidence.

Such shimmering wonder shines into your soul,
Adding hope, optimism,  an irrefutable scowl
That repudiates all pessimism, darkness,
And the need to succumb to its insidious whispers.

The murmur of such powers is devastating
If not fenced and bound.  Placing
It in a securely locked chest, that is impossible,
To open when your will inters it with all that’s enjoyable.

Revere the wondrous effect of shooting star
That lightens your burdens and shines a spotlight
Upon all that’s good, wondrous,  loving, bright,
And endlessly supporting your strengths from within.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem,  Miracle of the Mind

Thank you for the honor and your hard.

Miracle of the Mind

The miracle of the mind has yet
To be cracked by science’s tech that let
The population believe AI is better,

Better than the mind that can
Create heaven or hell in a scan
That flips a switch depending on the fan

You’re surrounded by, friend
Is heavenly,  hell is enemy,  that bind
The mind in a special centrifuge that’ll lend

A whirl into the cast of hell
Where actors, environments, alter to try and fell
Your ability to succumb to their tell

Of a story built in hell. So the mind
Sets barriers that turn hell to heaven, find
The source of it in a heart that’s kind,

Turn the circumstances into a boast
Of power: an ability to change gears in a crest
To survive life’s test.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, Silver Light, with a Review of my poem, by Dominique Ericilla Albano

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Silver Light

Silver light shines so bright,
Reflects on your surface in a fight
To blot out the blight
Of oppressive night.

As it shimmers on the lake
At night, it dances with shadows, fake
In their adulation of your stake
In everything that’s ensconced in black.

Its silver sheen is reminiscent
Of the clouds’ silver lining that bent
The impossible to their heaven sent
Hope, that relies on faith not being absent.

©️ Malak kalmoni chehab ©️

“Silver Light” by Malak Kalmoni Chehab is a poem that fits the theme “Whispers of the Night”. The poem explores the quiet, mystical atmosphere of the night, where the silver light of the moon shines bright, bringing hope and faith to the darkness.

The poem effectively captures the whispers of the night through the use of sensory language, with phrases like “night whispers fly” and “faith that whispers in corners sly”. The speaker’s emotions are palpable, and the poem conveys a sense of longing and hope.

*Line Count

There are 16 lines in the poem. The poem’s structure is well-executed, with a consistent rhyme scheme and meter that adds to its musicality. The language is rich and evocative, with a focus on the symbolism of the silver light and the moon.

Overall, the poem is a beautiful exploration of the theme “Whispers of the Night”, and it effectively captures the mystical and hopeful nature of the night.

Award of Excellence for my poem, Puissance of Power

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Puissance of Power

Courage to fly beyond your abilities
Takes you farther than when you’re
Restricted into the confines of strategies
That work only within the limits that are

The core of your strengths, believing
That’s all you can accomplish
Will invariably render your power into muting
Its progression into achieving the lavish

Impossibility of the strictures
You’ve established as your growth
Is stunted by the bars of your own raptures
That you’ve chained into a caged breath

That only takes you no farther
Than the nose, tangible, in sight
And touch, but believing in the freedom, power
Of inner puissance that’s untapped unless you fight.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, Sunset Shoreline

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Sunset Shoreline

Many warm, sunny days live
Live, happily in my memory bright,
Bright In the caressing rays of sunset,
Sunset as I ran with my GSD along,
Along the shoreline playing tag,
Tag each other and wrestle,
Wrestle in the wet sand,
Sand whose tiny molecules hide,
Hide everywhere in discomfort,  memory,
Memory of laughs, games,
Games that keep me on my toes,
Toes that leave footprints,
Footprints in the sand , erased,
Erased with the waves kissing,
Kissing the sand gently cradling,
Cradling its billions of grains,
Grains of sand shining in the dying,
Dying light as memory turns dark,
Dark with the night filled with lustrous,
Lustrous lucent quality,  wondrous,
Wondrous to gaze at its resplendent,
Resplendent glory that lives like a star,
Star in your memory bank, always sublime.

Award of Excellence for my poem,  Beyond Comfort

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

Beyond Comfort

Where does life begin and end?
Not in birth and death, no, not at all.
It starts when you reach a bend
Of road least taken and soar in a ball

In the sky that helps you perceive
The limitations you’d set for
Yourself,  yet, when you set it to a sieve
You’re awakened to receive the bounty for

Leaving your norm and discover
The unknown world beyond
The sphere of comfort and ponder
Why it’s taken you so long to find

The courage to experience life
Beyond the borders of your
Comfort zone that lited you into strife
Of habitual drudgery that becomes a chore.

Certificate of Excellence and review of my poem, Peace of Mind

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

Peace of Mind

What do geography and belief
Have in common? You ask yourself.

Well in every area in the world
People’s faith manifests itself as an umbilical chord

That pulls you towards strengthening
Your innate belief wherever you’re living.

Nature that surrounds you there
Inspires your discipline in faith that you’re

Applying by using your tongue to appreciate
The GOD given gifts, by using senses to venerate

The creator’s ingenuity in the beauty
Of simple things in life that are sturdy

In creating a depth of faith that’s
Indestructible for it, your spirit permeates.

The geography of faith is internalized
For it exists within and without, hard

To dislodge their meeting in a space
Whether vast or confined in your mind’s peace.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, 

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

Frozen Footprints

I swing around
My gazes abound
And stall. Frozen on the ground
By the footsteps that are never found.

Each step was an adventure, gone
And never seen, but remembered as one
Whose stature is alone
In memory and stone.

Adoration of all that’s long gone is futile,
For your recall is colored by a grapevine
Of emotions that are supple
And unmanageable.

Let it go!
Move on, throw
Caution to the wind, and blow
Away boundaries that limit your flow!
