I can’t tank the administrators for their hard work and for choosing my poetry for this honor.
Have any of you poets written so much that you lose the writing that gets honored? Well, I do, and it’s embarrassing, to say the least, but if I do find it, I’ll update the post!

Vanity’s Curse
From the swirling darkened fog A wisp of a gorgeous woman Wrapped haphazardly in blood red smog Alive in its flow as she moves, an
Astounding beauty, captivatingly attractive, Sensual, and her sexuality bared for All to consume closely and become enraptusured By a fiery beauty hiding an insidious core,
Horrifically rotten with envy, Hatred, corruption, aggression, All coalesce within her stare, a visionary Of destruction, disunity, strife that lend to perfection
Into her spiderweb of infractions That destroy unity’s equality And fairness that require absolutions From a community that venerates all that’s holy.
Wherever there’s equanimity She presents chaos and superfluous vanity.

Rainbowed love starts In red hot passions To orange hearts expanding, To yellow glow brightening The green of acceptance, change, And growth whose prosperity Turns into liquid blues, Those of summer skies Filled with potential of rains That alter fallow lands Into plentiful harvests. The same as love’s abilities To change others from singles To a unit that expands With the colors of rainbows That are always varied, Exiting changes that carried Your worries under two mind Supporting one another in a find Filled well of love that carries Change like loving swaddles Embraced in four arms of loves. The journey begins with a meeting, Attraction, connection, all can be fleeting, But you sacrifice, compromise, communicating All your hopes, then, them entwining Like the purple wisteria, two souls Becoming one, growing a family that cools Their stresses, soothes their anger, As their flow is like the ocean water, At times tranquil, others terrifying squalls That end in making up sessions, falls, Never, for they’re committed To one another, wedded.

Mirror, mirror, ‘Who am I looking at?’ Is that face, mouth, nose, all mine? Mirror, what do you see when you look at Me? Is it just my beauty and thine?
Have I no substance in your mind? Haven’t you born witness to the depth I hide behind the broken smile that’ll find A hidden maze to secrete screctets in a breath That creates a brume on your shiny Expanse? Does it fog my reflection Of a life lived, enjoyed, even chose empathy For the plight of others under destruction?
As the image is reflected back at me, I wonder on the choices I made, The trajectory I took, is what has come To be a reflection or refraction of things that fade?

The greens and burgeoning bushes, Flowers, and trees are heady bees Working hard to overthrow Winter’s Deadly stagnation by flipping switches
That spring with bubbling streams, Vibrant greens, and flourishing branches Heavy with new life seeded by birds And the bees.
How is it that you can see growth Within the beauty of nature and mouth Off that you’re an unbeliever in faith That GOD exists and helps the resurgence
To take place, while beauty that usurps The dreary with life that cups, Embraces, and soars into the cusps Of quiescent delicacy, flawless in its
Need to beautify the world with Its wondrous fragility, whose growth Into stupendous strength, Refreshes your belief in Godly faith.
As spring springs with sublime Beauty, festivities abound In a crime Against nature, as man destroys time, That can’t return, as feasting needs a compromise
For harvesting can asphixiate The breath in the soil seeking a fate Of rejuvenation while waiting in a straight Line, awaiting death’s suffocating blow.

Valentine 💝
He calls me angel for thee, I gave him another three, Two girls balanced by a boy, that be Hearts that are intertwined with me And need greater space than the tiny heart in me.
My valentine keeps me lively, On my toes, thinking compassionately Of his needs, comfort completely Incorporated into my routine, daily Trying to accommodate them freely.
As we dance rhythmically All worries melt away, elegantly As our arms are our cauldron that empty Into hearts overflowing of peacefully Ingrained and growing love decimating all worry.

March into view Trying to review The occurrences of the year’s cue.
A mom’s rejuvenating love Pushes you to believe That tomorrow will relieve Your anxiety and turn it positive.
Her influence is a font of information, With wisdom conquering the defamation Of news, knowledge, and experimentation That are the backbone of socialization.
As spring springs in May, Mothers recharge their Ray Of sunshine that illuminates the Flay Of your strengths, but with her you’ll Prevail.
A day in a year is not enough To the importance of her presence that’s tough To replace, since her nature’s nurturing will laugh At the presence of any that are demeaning to her kiddo.
